Her family lives in a trailer
Five miles out of town
He's crazy, said the neighbors
I was white, she was brown
But we'd just run to the river
And lay our bodies down
Between her sighs we'd love away the lies
That followed us around
Margarita, Margarita
The softness of your body
And the hunger in my soul
Are the only secrets I'll ever know
Margarita
We grew up together
While our families worked the land
And the shadows never touched
The places where we ran
But as the years went drifting by
The harvest turned to sand
She went away, I had to stay
I'll never understand
