14 Karat Gold

Off the deep end

14 Karat Gold– Gordon Lightfoot

If you see me smile don’t think I’m acting strange
I got my just reward for all my pains
If you see me on the TV talking proud
Please understand if I don’t talk too loud
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set ‘em loose and let ‘em roll
This is my advice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin’ hot ‘n’ cold
She’s more than money
She’s 14 Karat Gold

If you wonder why I’m acting up this way
Gonna cash my chips I’m leavin’ town today
I got more love than I could ever spend
So long, farewell, good-bye, this is the end

Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set ‘em loose and let ‘em roll
Be as cool as ice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin’ hot ‘n’ cold
She’s more than money
She’s 14 Karat Gold

If you get hit by the bug that bit on me
If you get caught with something soft and sweet
If you get found with something you can’t waste
Then listen bud, let me give you a taste

Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set ‘em loose and let ‘em roll
This is my advice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin’ hot ‘n’ cold
She’s more than money
She’s 14 Karat Gold
Sold.

El Guapo

By eroica | May 24, 2010

El Guapo the Magnificent (Mr. Merryweather's Dad... shh)

Arabesque– Caballero

You are a very noble man
Descended from a noble clan
You live by the rules of your family
You can’t marry me
For I am just a humble girl
Not born to see the great big world
Our love can’t be more than a secret love
For no one to see
Caballero, caballero
You’re a famous man in town
I must wait out of sight
Till you kiss me tonight
Caballero, caballero
So delightful, so delightful
Caballero, caballero
If you ever let me down
I’ll be crying and crying all night
But I’ll be gone
Just like the evening sun
In dreams I’m rich and you are poor
And I am looking for amor
I pick you up in a street cafe
Where you spend your days
We’re driving to my grand hotel
My heart’s aflame, you’re looking swell
I won’t set you free for you love must be
Only for me
Caballero, caballero
You’re a famous man in town
I must wait out of sight
Till you kiss me tonight
Caballero, caballero
So delightful, so delightful
Caballero, caballero
If you ever let me down
I’ll be crying and crying all night
But I’ll be gone
Just like the evening sun
Caballero
Caballero, caballero
You’re a famous man in town
I must wait out of sight
Till you kiss me tonight
Caballero, caballero
So delightful, so delightful
Caballero, caballero
If you ever let me down
I’ll be crying and crying all night
But I’ll be gone
Just like the evening sun
