Mi Novela 03:26
YO SOY UN HOMBRE QUAJIRO CON UNA VIDA SENSILLA TRABAJO COMO LOS GUEYES PA GANAR PAN DE CADA DIA Y COMO CUALQUIER HOMBRE QUE PIERDE SU REALIDAD EN ESTE MUNDO MODERNO AY QUE BUSCAR SU FELICIDAD AY PAPI NO LLORES NO LLORES POR LA NOVELA AY PAPI NO LLORES NO LLORES POR LA NOVELA NO PIDO NADA DE A LA VIDA NI SOY MAL CONOCIDO PERO AY QUE ENTRETENERSE Y MI NOVELA NECESITO Y CUANDO VIENE LA NOCHE Y PRENDO LA TELEVISION YO LLORRO CON MI NOVELA AY MAMITA QUE OBSESSION CHORUS Y CUANDO PREGUNTA MI VIEJA JUANITO A DONDE VAS? ME LARGO Y NO RESPONDO Y NO PIERDO NI UN COMPAS ME BUSCA POR LA MANANA ANTES QUE SAL EL SOL ME PICO CON MI NOVELA AY MAMITA QUE DOLOR © 2009 (T. ZAMORA, C. DELUNA, E. BAYTOS, J.

I’m just a little while, away from my home Only a few short miles and I won’t be alone And I’m just a little tired but I want to see all my friends Like a man with an old blue song Trying to get through the end Darkness came over me, sorrow did remain But I’ve been working my way back Through the wind and the rain Though I’m just a little drop in this sea of despair Sadness will soon dry up when he answers my prayer I’m just a little shy to see you again Like a tattoo of an old lover, kind of hard to defend And I’m just a little calm right before the storm I’ve been standing out in the rain Feeling mostly alone Darkness came over me, sorrow did remain But I’ve been working my way back Through the wind and the rain I fall to my bended knees and Lord I hear what you say Now I know my way home; because you showed me the way Though I’m just a little drop in this sea of despair Sadness will soon dry up when he answers my prayer Sorrow will find an end when he answers my prayer You know I’ll be coming home when he answers my prayer © 2009 Tony Zamora PerroFlaco Music ASCAP

Mexicali 04:36
If you ever want or need to see me again you’ll have to go down to Mexicali I’ll be drinking hard, playing my guitar and sitting in with my old band I’m no low down gambler but I’d bet my Rambler You would take it all from me again The things I used to do never bothered you but that was way back when We used to smoke and drink and dance and laugh at love, and monkey all night long I do believe that we had it all but somehow it all went wrong We had to change our ways and move to Cudahy about a mile from the 710. I turned a page for you and sold my Harley too I felt six feet from the end but honey I ain’t dead yet my eyes are open wide you know I’d never want to quit you baby but I can’t lay down and die Honey you ain’t said yet a single thing to make me stay Do what you have to do all I can say to you is I’m leaving here yesterday I’ve been three months now in this border town ain’t seen hide nor hair of Javier and the Yuma crew did the same thing too and disappeared into thin air You won’t believe my dear what waited for me here Not just a chance to see who’s left around But what was here to see is what’s become of me I’m at the phone booth on the edge of town But honey I ain’t dead yet, no my eyes are open wide You know I’d never want to hurt you baby but I had to come here and try And honey you ain’t said yet, a single thing in my defense So why’d I go and do the things to act a fool Cause it’s the only thing that made no sense I’m down to fighting weight wondering about my fate Lord I think of only you all day If it were only enough I’d be right on that bus headed straight for Cudahy and now your telling me there’s something else to be just as natural as the break of day If what you say is true I’m coming home to you And I’m never going to leave L.A. Honey I ain’t dead yet, no my eyes are open wide You always knew that I’d do right by you And finally I would come alive And honey you ain’t lost that bet You kept it all just a big surprise We got just what we need, another mouth to feed! Got a reason to live and die © 2009 T. Zamora PerroFlaco Music ASCAP

Goodbye Miss Lynn, I hope that it’s been As much fun as we both recall You can lean my way on any other day So long as we don’t have to fall Mid November is a fading light Fallen leaves lay trampled on the ground I wouldn’t hedge my bet with a country wife Bare footsteps fall softly without a sound Goodbye Miss Lynn, I hope that it’s been As much fun as we both recall You can lean my way on any other day So long as we don’t have to fall Time and again I say the same old thing You just smile with the pearl moon in your eyes With the night air being as bitter cold as it’s been I’ll wait tomorrow and kiss you at sunrise Goodbye Miss Lynn, I hope that it’s been As much fun as we both recall You can lean my way on any other day So long as we don’t have to fall It’s only right that it’d be raining hard the Winter snow you said is surely on it’s way In the spring we were young but had to part I know we’ll do it all again some day Goodbye Miss Lynn, I hope that it’s been As much fun as we both recall You can lean my way on any other day So long as we don’t have to fall © 2009 T.

Hocicona 04:58
I got a woman that loves to squawk First thing morning she loves to talk She sure got a sexy walk Eyes be on her like a hawk Her big ol’ pretty fine smile Makes me walk a country mile But I wouldn’t change a thing, no I wouldn’t change a thing But I wouldn’t change a thing, no I wouldn’t change a thing Boss say tell her don’t call no more You ain’t getting your job done Actin’ like a kid in a candy store Time stands still for no one But I wouldn’t change a thing, no I wouldn’t change a thing But I wouldn’t change a thing, no I wouldn’t change a thing But I wouldn’t change a thing, no la quiero cambiar But I wouldn’t change a thing, no la quiero cambiar In the door she’s on the phone Jaw-jackin’ tellin’ every little detail Wait till I get her all alone I’d rather be the hammer on a nail Hocicona never misses a trick Hold ten conversations at the same time All she need is one chopstick Talkin’ and chewin’ on the same thin dime I wish I could turn that chatter off………………!!!!!! Ay que escuchar lo que dice la senora pero como me gustar a pagar la Hocicona ©2007 H. Brown, T. Zamora, C.Estrada, D. Hidalgo, L.Oskar

about

Even though they are from Los Angeles and have close ties to Los Lobos, there are few repertoires that scream “Gulf Coast” like Tremoloco’s. No matter whether the language is Spanish or English; the style honky-tonk, Tex-Mex or rock and roll; the dance a two-step, zydeco stomp or slow drag, Tremoloco plays it with a mastery that makes most of our local honky-tonk heroes sound like weekend warriors at best. The accordions whir, the guitars smoke and the blues is the blues no matter the language. To properly listen to ‘Loco’s magnificent debut, Dulcinea, one needs the clinking of ice in glasses, the low barroom hubbub of voices and laughter and the occasional Freddy Fender “ay-yay-yay.” The material ranges from the hilarious “Mi Novela” (my soap opera), in which a macho husband can’t get enough of the daily Latin television dramas, to “Tremoloco,” a super-cool instrumental track that should be on a tape loop in every bedroom in America where clothes are on the floor and the sheets are tangled. With Los Lobos drummer Cougar Estrada, Dave Alvin alum Rick Shea on guitars and Tony Zamora’s earthy lyrics and vocals, this band should rapidly become favorites here in H-Town, where belt buckle polishing is part of the genetic code. Throw Tremoloco on the jukebox anywhere between Los Skarnales and Clifton Chenier, between Freddy Fender and Los Lobos, between Ruben Ramos and Bill Black’s Combo, and you’re on Tremoloco’s musical terra firma, a robust Tex-Mexican Americana.
