I've been in this town so long that back in the city

I've been taken for a lost and gone

An unknown for a long long time



Fell in love years ago

With an innocent girl

From the Spanish and Indian home

Home of the heroes and villains

Once at night Catillion squared the fight

And she was right in the rain of the bullets that eventually brought her down

But she's still dancing in the night

Unafraid of what a dudell do in a town full of heroes and villains



In the cantina

Margarita's keep the spirit high

There I watched her

She spun around and

Round in the warmth of her body

Fanned the flame of the dance

Dance Margarita don't you know that Im in love with you

Dance

Dance



You're under arrest!



My children were raised

You know they suddenly rise

They started slow long ago

Head to toe healthy weathy and often wise



At three score and five

I'm very much alive

I still got the jive to survive with the heroes and villains
