Echoes of the Oldies,
comin' thru my barrio walls.
They're throwin' him a goodbye party,
but he's sittin' there all alone.
Someone's humping in my bedroom,
and his cousin's a-freakin' out.
They think that no one respects them,
and they're ready to turn out.
He's leavin',
he's runnin' away from the man.
They tried to bust him for a drive-by,
so he's leavin' while he can.
He can't make it in the Pinta,
he'll go crazy locked up inside.
So he kisses her on the cheek,
and heads off into the night.
Lupe's heart is breaking,
she realizes Rudy is gone.
She cries herself to sleep,
and wonders if he'll ever come home.
Someday he might send for her,
and she'll follow him wherever he goes.
She dreams of his chorizo,
dreaming all alone...
