Reed Foehl - Carmalina lyrics

Carmalina, she works for jesus Sweeps the church, ole st. marie She tried to leave once Juarez for phoenix Never got nowhere Dressed in flowers She spends her hours One by one Drying up in the sun But come the twilight You can bet that she might Put on her makeup To cover up one more time Chorus: Carmalina, a mexican prize Won by many In the bars late at night Strange behavior For our savior Born a stranger to affection Her adolescence fell by the way Like a child actor She grew up too quickly Moving so swiftly Chorus Alt. verse: When the rains came No one was to blame They wrote it off As they rolled her way My fallen angel I know you meant well My fallen angel I know you meant well My fallen angel I know you meant well Carmalina
