Acapulco Fair Lyrics

Boy, say what you doing

You've taken the last train home again

There's something brewing

Your eyes are on fire and your face has got that glow

Oh no, there's nothing doing

The streets are so bare find no feeling there

It's gone to ruin

When even Monday's midnight movie seems unreal

But it's the silveriest screen I ever

Come across or seen and I never

Have to slip away and dream just to feel I'm there

Anything you want to know they'll tell you

Anywhere you want to go and they'll sell you

Something that will take you there, it's as well you

Get up and go, come on down to Acapulco fair

I remember Rio's, the night that they burned it

Tore the old place down

Remember Rio's

The way the people came and cried to see an old friend go

Do you recall the Roxy

The rainy day weekend afternoons in style?

Recall the Roxy

Whatever happened to Caruso's smile?

I want to meet you there at midnight

Caress / Kiss your raven hair in the starlight

There's everything to share right before your eyes

They'll seem to steal your soul then blow it

You'll seem to lose control and not know it

They'll make it all unfold before you

Dandy on the wagon, hand me down a flagon of wine

No one else could, no one else would show me where the Bossanova Bootboys shine

I said, no one else would treat me so fine

No one else knows, no one else goes with me to the Mississippi Minstrel show

I said, no one else would treat me so fine

Dandy on the wagon, hand me down a flagon of wine

Down at Alcapulco Fair
