Dancing at the El Moro


Dancing at the El Moro

Its all boarded up now, sin and all.
Filled with passion, lust and abandon.
I once danced at the El Moro.

Any sanity or reason far off.
No one knew me there. Just a white gringo pig
Or so they called me when
I once danced at the El Moro.

Bejeweled women all flimsy and nice.
Hustles left and right, seen through
Some azure created by shots of straight Jack.
I once danced at the El Moro.

I wanted to risk all in a messy place.
Bold and crazy, I forgot I was old.
I once danced at the El Moro.

There are fences and spaces in life though.
Those with scowls on their faces looked at me.
Disdain and looks of hate. I did not belong there.
I once danced at the El Moro.

I did not care. Then I heard a sermon from somewhere.
The voice said, "they like me had no souls. Just waiting for hell.
There were other places I wanted to go.
Its all boarded up now, sin and all.
I once danced at the El Moro.
