about

Written by Mark Anthony Febbo and Billy Sedlmayr

lyrics

I go out walking in a blue monsoon
Walking past the ladies with those eyes of ruin
Past the old soup kitchen and their rusty spoons
Past the hungry hovels by the light of the moon
I walk past it all just to pass the time

Well, old Don Chapo he’s a pretty spry guy
He got creases on his face like a map of denial
He got a pacha for breakfast, a pacha for noon
A pint for a little later cause it comes so soon
We both say “salud!” just to bless our ticking time

Doña Panchita that ain’t really her name
Her real name is Francis, but she likes to claim
A little more culture, that’s why she smokes Braves
She likes those cigarettes, but she likes to save
She rides a Rascal Scooter, just to save her some time

Dirty Jack Kirkland smells like gasoline
He shows up shaking like a leaf on the breeze
You know he pleads the fifth until his second sip
By the fourth and fifth he ‘bout has a grip
And I meet with him just to pass him a dime

And Rambo Reyes lives outside on Sixth and Stone
Big old German Shepard tried to gnaw him to the bone
But he was not the man who the popo sought
So when that dog attacked him, well, you better bet he fought
Well Rambo killed that dog and he served his time

I go out walking in a blue monsoon
Walking past the ladies with those eyes of gloom
Past the old dried up river and datura in bloom
Past the hungry hovels by the light of the moon
I walk past it all just to pass the time
