Barrio
[Verse 1]
Hey, sit with me, talk with me a while
I could use almost any excuse to make me smile
See, I had a girl but now she's gone
And I had a band but now all of them are gone
And I had a van but everything inside of it is all gone
I guess I was living a life but the spirits thought it was wrong
[Chorus 1]
Now I don't have nothing at all, I live in the barrio
And I walk along with a dog I don't even know
And through somebody's window I hear a loud stereo
I've found a home here, barrio
[Verse 2]
You can talk about the public, well, usually the men become bums
Like to hang around gas stations bumming nickеls and dimes [?]
The girls usually becomе whores, they feel it's all that they're good for
They hang around motel signs and they're selling time
I wish I was in the market
[Chorus 2]
Now I stroll around my new neighborhood in the barrio
And I walk along with some dirty dog I don't even know
In every window there seems to be a blaster or a stereo
And I walk along, I don't care where I go, care where I go
[Verse 3]
Hammers and nails, I wouldn't blame them if they sadly ship themselves away
That old map she has still works
She just needs to admit she knows where she lost it
Where she lost it
[Outro]
I had a good girl, I swore she was a saint
We tried living together but she said she just can't
I had good band, I had a good band
The barrio, wonder where I'll go
