The Road To Bayamon

C

C
Well, all you possum-belly queens, get outta here
        G               C
Gypsy's out for blood tonight
She's got 'Love' and 'Hate' tattooed on her fists
      G                        C
She's drunk and she's ready to fight

            F                       C
She used to run a little shot and a beer joint
            F                   C
Now she's a jockey on the Astro ride
    F             C
She took me for a whirl one night
                  G
It messed me up inside

      C           F
Ai-yi-yi, oh, the rain
    C                    G
How long can the rain go on?
        C                     F
There's nothing sadder than a carnival
       G           C
On the road to Bayamon

In a parking lot down in old San Juan
           G           C
Out on the road to Bayamon
We set up the tents and the alibi joints
        G                 C
And the freak show from Leon

       F               C
We had French Canadian racketeers
    F                  C
And rednecks from down south
    F            C
And Puerto Rican pistol boys
                     G
With boa constrictor mouths

      C           F
Ai-yi-yi, oh, the rain
    C                    G
How long can the rain go on?
        C                     F
There's nothing sadder than a carnival
       G           C
On the road to Bayamon

Well, the wirewalker started drinking hard
    G                    C
The payroll checks never came
And somebody stole the little two-headed boy
        G                     C
And the midway drowned in the rain

         F                           C
Well, it rained through the month of April
       F                           C
And it rained through the month of May
     F                     C
And all across that little island
                          G
I could hear the children say

      C           F
Ai-yi-yi, oh, the rain
    C                    G
How long can the rain go on?
        C                     F
There's nothing sadder than a carnival
       G           C
On the road to Bayamon

      C           F
Ai-yi-yi, oh, the rain
    C                   G
How long can this rain go on?
        C                     F
There's nothing sadder than a carnival
       G           C
On the road to Bayamon
