I hear mariachi music on my radio
And the tubes they glow in the dark
I'm with you in ensenada
Now I'm stucking in echo park
Carmelita, hold me tighter
Ameli I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
Well I pawned my smith corona
And I went to meet my man
He hangs out on alvarado street
At the pioneer chicken stand
Carmelita, hold me tighter
Carmelita I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
Carmelita, hold me tighter
Carmelita I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
Well I'm sittin' here playing solitaire
With my pearl handled deck
The county don't give me no more methadone
And they cut off your welfare check
Carmelita, hold me tighter
Ameli I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
Carmelita, hold me tighter
Ameli I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
I'm so strung on the outskirts of town
Im so strung,
I'm so strung
on the outskirts of town
