The Songwriter Series - Del Rio (Acoustic)

The Songwriter Series is all about taking my studio releases back to their most basic form, just me and a guitar. Hope you enjoy and thanks for watching.

Del Rio - Written by Randy Fields & Daniel Johnson

I saw a coyote in the desert
With a mouth full of feathers
From a crow with a broken wing

It mighta been a bad omen to ever cross that river
Playing a jack against a queen
Her sun-kissed skin and her mezcal eyes
I never stood a chance
Cause the way she was moving
Had me tossing peso's to the mariachi band

I can still see her
Dancing in my dreams
I’m still under the spell she put on me
She poisoned my mind with just a kiss
There was a song hanging off of her lips
She had me singing na na na na na na na na na na naa naa
Couldn't tell you all the words
But I know I heard Mi Amor
Mi Amor, Del Rio

She was taking shots with a smile wearing my cowboy hat
After than I was too far in
It might have got lost in translation but she whispered something
And I never saw her again
I spent the next few days chasing her in a fever
I couldnt let her slip away
But the law knew I was down there moving money
So I knew that I had to leave

I can still see her
Dancing in my dreams
I’m still under the spell she put on me
She poisoned my mind with just a kiss
There was a song hanging off of her lips
She had me singing na na na na na na na na na na naa naa
Couldn't tell you all the words
But I know I heard Mi Amor
Mi Amor, Del Rio

I can still see her
Dancing in my dreams
Still under the spell she put on me
She poisoned my mind with just a kiss
There was a song hanging off of her lips
She had me singing na na na na na na na na na na naa naa
Couldn't tell you all the words
But I know I heard Mi Amor
Mi Amor, Del Rio

My love, my love from The River

If you're running from the law
Across the Rio Grande
In Acuña when the stars goes dark
You better turn your ass around and head straight back to Texas
Never gamble with my heart...
