Tampico Lyrics
Tampico - June Christy
I Tampico Tampico
On the Gulf of Mehico
Tampico Tampico
Down in Mehico
You buy a beautiful shawl
A souvenir for Aunt Flo
Authentic Mexican yarn
Made in Idaho
I Tampico Tampico
On the Gulf of Mehico
Tampico Tampico
Down Mehico
The senoritas
They waive
When you arrive at the dock
The native costumes they wear
Are slacks and bobby socks
I Tampico Tampico
On the Gulf of Mehico
Tampico Tampico
Down in Mehico
You buy some pottery there
To beat the luxury tax
You find that
When you get home
They sell it cheaper at Sachs
I Tampico Tampico
On the Gulf of Mehico
Tampico Tampico
Down in Mehico
You ask a Mexican band
To play a rumba-down-dare
He turns and says to the boys
"Hey fellas
Dig that square "
I Tampico Tampico
On the Gulf of Mehico
Tampico Tampico
Down in Mehico
Down in Mehico
