(Woo, hoo!
This is a story of a Texas boy
On his first trip to México
Play it, Flaco)
Took some time to mess around
Went down to Guadalajara town
Pretty soon I ended up in Lake Chapala
Wouldn't you know, it happened to me
Prettiest girl I ever see
Said "I'll take you home to meet my mother"
Was a fiesta in the town
People came from miles around
She said "Have her home at siete"
Then we danced 'til quarter to two
I didn't know just what to do
I can still hear her when she say
"He is a tejano
And he speak no mexicano
He is a tejano
And he speak no mexicano"
(Woo!)
(Woo, hoo!)
(I'm Texas cool)
Pretty soon it's time to go
Back to Texas and do a show
She said "Mister, please take me with you"
"Yeah, I hear it sure is great
Back there in the States
Back on your rancho in San Antonio"
Felt her brothers closin' in
They said "Gringo, better tell her when"
As I come down the stairs and down a backstreet
Barely made that boat on time
Oh man, she sure was fine
I can still hear her when she say
"He is a tejano
And he speak no mexicano
He is a tejano
And he speak no mexicano"
"He is a tejano
And no hable mexicano
He is a tejano
He no hable mexicano"
(Yeah, he's a tejano alright
Yeah, I know, listen in
Uno, dos, tres, quatro, cinco
Mucho libre, uno más
¿Qué pasó?
¿Qué pasó? I heard that before)
He speak no mexicano
(Taco brothers where are you?)
He is a tejano
