Rodriguez For A Night
I once rode with an angel
Through the arroyo called "Dry Run"
Until one day she made it clear
That I could never be the one
And then she met the outlaw Rodriguez
It was then that her heart took flight
Well, I would sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez for just one night
I confess he had some qualities
That might attract a foolish girl
An effortless charisma
And a clever way with the world
Now, I'm just a drugstore cowboy
You know I'll never be Mister Right
Still, I'd sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez for just one night
In a course of time I married
Decided to settle down
I was getting too old to chase that dream
And way too tired to kick around
But if the Devil still wants to talk a deal
I'd be willing to curse the light
Yes, I'd sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez
Still, I'd sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez for just one night
Through the arroyo called "Dry Run"
Until one day she made it clear
That I could never be the one
And then she met the outlaw Rodriguez
It was then that her heart took flight
Well, I would sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez for just one night
I confess he had some qualities
That might attract a foolish girl
An effortless charisma
And a clever way with the world
Now, I'm just a drugstore cowboy
You know I'll never be Mister Right
Still, I'd sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez for just one night
In a course of time I married
Decided to settle down
I was getting too old to chase that dream
And way too tired to kick around
But if the Devil still wants to talk a deal
I'd be willing to curse the light
Yes, I'd sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez
Still, I'd sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez for just one night
