about

Purtiest thing in Texas

lyrics

It was Texas in July rolling on I-35
Northbound around Lorena hot and happy to be alive
Heading towards Dallas where it was only a hundred and three
The ghetto bus was rolling hard and it was time to eat

Plugged into the satellite trying to get a little help from big brother
We weren’t exactly lost but it was getting hard to tell
Chale, you can go to hell

In these parts soul food’s easy as taking a bite
We pulled into a place that looked just right
Food was smelling good when she walked out the kitchen door
A vision of Latina loveliness like I’d never seen before

Just a natural woman, blessed with a beauty so sublime
Thoughts felt like sins but we were under her spell
And for that
Chale, you can go to hell

We sat at her table made us all feel like “El Rey”
Every move she made, had that certain sexy sway
A man can look like a troll, be old and slow as he please
But it won’t stop him from thinking
he’s got a shot at the major leagues

Yeah it’s stupid and sometimes it’s really not all that much fun
But some caveman imprint makes more than our egos swell
And for that
Chale, you can go to hell

We were about to pay the bill, it’d be the first time I’d see
A tattoo on our angel as she reached right in front of me
Like cholo tagged graffiti right across her upper left arm
It was only one word “Chale” right then we were warned

Oh man, come on that’s right where her inoculation should be
So did we learn a single thing or just have this story to tell
Chale, you can go to hell
