lirik lagu zach aaron - aztec cafe
in a border cantina south of the river a gray~haired vaquero sits alone
he used to work the cattle on the old broken arrow, a lifetime of hurting tattooed on his soul
see you couldn’t buy an acre on a vaqueros wages, no hope for a family, or making a home
but home ain’t a place home is maria, she’s up there washing dishes at the aztec cafe
one day the owner of the arrow sat in a corner booth near the doorway of that little cafe
he was a hot~tempered man with a quick right hand and a downright dirty way
maria spilled his coffee cup and before she could clean it up he swung his hand across her face
the people stopped and stared as he grabbed her by the hair and that vaquero made his way across the place
there was nowhere to run when the man grabbed his gun and turned it maria’s way
blood hit the floor and ran out the door ran out the door
chorus:
that old dirty river is a wall of his prison, no amount of water or razor wire
could keep him away from maria
he said i k!lled that man before he pulled the trigger on my love my beautiful wife
but there is no justice for an illegal man when he takes a wealthy rancher’s life
it’s been 5 years since he’s seen maria, his love, his beautiful wife
in a border cantina ciudad juarez, a gray haired vaquero answers my call
we’ve got a window, see you in el paso, if you slip up you’re on your own
chorus:
that old dirty river is a wall of his prison, no amount of water or razor wire
could keep him away from maria
he arrives as planned in a one~ton van smiles as i give him his pay
he’s off to rondo to meet his maria and buy her the key to the aztec cafe
that gray~haired vaquero has all he ever wanted adios mi amigo i wish you well
now i’ve got a plan and a white chevy van and 200 pounds to sell
