Decided it was time to take a boxcar ride
Outa the rain snow and cold
Me and a friend of mine
Guy I met somewhere down the road
Hummin' all the way down to Spain on that choo choo train
Safe across the border
Abidin' law and order
Lost eachother gettin' high on calvados
I sorta looked up with what musta been
The face of gratitude
When she kissed me on my cheek
And winked her little voulez-vous
They trampled on my head like a dancer did somewhere in Madrid
I couldn't feel, I couldn't see
Stole my passport and left a red bandana
On the steps of the cantina
They threw me out the door
I couldn't ask for more
Snot love in Spain
Snot love in vain
Too young to explain
Love in Spain
Well I found out pretty soon
I could dig myself in down the beach poolside
Rip off a German hup two baby all right
She was a waitress
I couldn't resist
Her brother said she will make you a good wife
Well since I was from over the border
Abidin' law and order
We spent the night gettin' high on calvados
I looked up with what musta been
The face of solitude
When she slapped me on the face
And her brother started gettin' rude
They trampled on my head etc……
