    (Part 2)
    ... verme tan solo y triste
    Cual hoja al viento,
    Quisiera llorar, quisiera morir
    De sentimiento

    (Part 3)
    There's an alley in Acuna
    Right next to a night club
    That's never been paved
    And is hip deep in chugholes

    It sort of trails into
    What once was a river
    But now is a ditch
    That smells just like sewage

    And there in the alley
    We're drinking Vampiras
    And smoking Delicados
    With Jaime and Umberto

    At three in the morning
    They order more nachos
    Another round of Vampiras
    'Cause they own the night club

    As well as the alley
    And all of a sudden
    We could not stop laughing
    And the laughter bounced off of

    The old precinct station
    And roared down the street
    Infecting the students
    Who were all still on spring break

    But now were all laughing
    Except for the one
    With the beautiful girlfriend
    Who looked like the virgin of Ciudad Acuna

    Who munched on a nacho
    And watched as her boyfriend
    Knelt down by Umberto
    And could not stop vomiting

    (Part 4)
    Beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
    Play the dead march as you bear me along
    Take me to the green valley, lay the sod o'er me
    I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong

    Ay, ay ay ay
    Ay, ay ay ay
    Ay, ay ay ay
    Ay, ay ay ay
