3rd Chorus Mexico City Blues

Describe fires in riverbottom

sand, and the cooking;

the cooking of hot dogs

spitted in whittled sticks

over flames of woodfire

with grease dropping in smoke

to brown and blacken

the salty hotdogs,

and the wine,

and the work on the railroad.

 

$275,000,000,000.00 in debt

says the Government

Two hundred and seventy five billion

dollars in debt

Like Unending

Heaven

And Unnumbered Sentient Beings

Who will be admitted -

Not-Numberable -

To the new Pair of Shoes

Of White Guru Fleece

O j o !

The Purple Paradise
