I'm in love with that girl right there
Pretty Mexican girl with the dark brown hair
Big brown eyes and hands so small
Seen one Mexican girl and you seen 'em all

I asked one out and I asked one more
The first one laughed and the other looked bored
I don't ask for a reason and they don't say
And I don't know why but it's always that way.

Six feet tall and she is it
And I don't have the common sense to quit
You can tell she's a model but you know what they're like
Starve like jockeys and besides they're dykes.

Fat girls like me, yes they do
And I've liked them a time or two
Well, call me a pig but I confess
That I've been holding out for less.

In love with one, intrigued by another
Can't stand this girl but I like her mother
They're all different and they're all the same
But it don't really matter 'cause I can't get laid.
