Lyrics

I was 18 years old just a research volunteer;
I walked home from the tcby each night with no fear
One particular starry 11 o'clock
I went down by the water;
An old man with a burlap bag
Said how you doin' my daughter
He put me in the hole of his old rusty crawler
And fed me three pills a day to keep me from getting taller
Learned me the rosary and made me pray to santiago:
I wish I wish I was back in chicago
Up the river to seville I was rowing and strumming
On my portable guitar my fair lady a humming
The pain, the pain, in spain falls mainly on me
The pain, the pain, in spain falls mainly on me
