 I once  met a man with a sense  of adventure
 He was dressed  to thrill wherever  he went
 He said,  "Let's make love on a mountain  top
Under  the stars on a big  hard rock"
 I said "In these  shoes?  I don't think  so.
 I said "Honey,  let's do it here."
 So I'm sitting  at a bar in Guadalajara
In  walks a guy with a faraway  look in his eyes
 He said "I've got a powerful horse  outside
 Climb  on the back, I'll take  you for a ride
 I know  a little place we can get  there for the break of day."
 I said, "In these  shoes?  No way, Jose"
 I said "Honey, let's  stay right here."
 No  le gusta caminar. No  puede montar  a caballo
 Como  se puede bailar?  Es un escandolo.
 Then  I met an Englishman, Oh,  he said
 Won't  you walk up and down  my spine, it  makes me feel strangely  alive."
 I said "In these  shoes?  I doubt you'd survive.
 I said "Honey,  let's do  it."
No  le gusta caminar.  No puede montar  a caballo
 Como  se puede bailar?  Es un escandolo.
 (She doesn't like to walk, she can't ride a horse,
  but the way she dances, it's a scandal)
