Amina Shareef Ali - Tucson
Well, you went to the dance with Aaron
I seen you wearing your best dress
But it was you and Paul coming out that stall
With his shirttails all a mess
And then I saw you go out back with Jack
I saw you kiss him on the mouth
And before I could catch my breath
You caught the last train south
But how am I gonna understand
Why you like every kind of boy except the kind I am
Why you wanna drag my love through the rocks and sand
And that heat so dry
I'm'a go to the corner store
Gonna get myself an It's It bar
Last about as long as my heart would where you are
Down in Tucson, where good love goes to die
Good love can only thrive
In a climate cold and wet
Now you've gone about as far away
From that as you can get
I met a man had that red rock tan
Said he came from around those parts
With that leather skin
And the spines sticking from his heart
But how am I gonna understand
Why you like every kind of boy except the kind I am
Why you wanna drag my love through the rocks and sand
And that heat so dry
I'm'a go to the corner store
Gonna get myself an It's It bar
Last about as long as my heart would where you are
Down in Tucson, where good love goes to die
Remember all the nights I spent
At the window sill of your apartment
You'd stand and grin behind the curtain
But you'd never invite me in
Scrawl my love in chalk out on your sidewalk
It was raining all the while
Sometimes the best you can do
Is make a pretty girl smile
But I ain't never gonna understand
Why you like every kind of boy except the kind I am
Why you wanna drag my love through the rocks and sand
And that heat so dry
I'm'a go to the corner store
Gonna get myself an It's It bar
Last about as long as my heart would where you are
Down in Tucson, where good love goes to die
Down in Tucson, where good love goes to die
Down in Tucson, where good love goes to die
