Reo Speedwagon - Easy Money Lyrics
South of the border and busted,Caught by a woman I trusted,Now dont you call me a fool,It could have happened to you,Its just my luck,It had to happen to me.Sweet carmelita betrayed meShe said, take me home, serenade me.I figured a song could do me no wrong.I didnt know how wrong I could be.Easy money for just one run to peru.Itll be so easy. well have no trouble gettin through.Well I almost made it, except for that one border guard.He opened up my guitar. hello prison yard.Goodbye easy money. easy money.The chiquita must have told em my storycause when my eyes finally focused next morningCarmelita had spoken bout guitars and some cokeAnd she laughed as they slapped me in chains.I was thrown in cell with a killer.A convict who coughed through the night.While I laid awake with the chills and shakes,Hoping for a file in a cake.Easy money for just one run to peru.Itll be so easy. well have no trouble gettin through.Well I almost made it, except for that one border guard.He opened up my guitar. hello prison yard.Just to make me mad he smashed my guitar.Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye,Easy money
