Lyrics

SO COLD MARIA
Written by MIke McHugh

Every time she puts one down
she says that it will be the last
Then she lays her maid's dress out
as I smoke on the kitchen chair

I heard the phone call
Room six El Rancho Motel
She says just one more
I drive with So Cold Maria

She knocks light on the first floor door
ignores the sign that says do not disturb.
Chain door with a mustache face
stares at her open lips as she speaks
"I can come back at ten"
she says so shyly he decides to let her in
She looks around the room
as his eyes prowl her light brown skin
(chorus)
While he's looking down
she pops his head without a sound
she finished off the round,
now he's lying face up
I follow her in,
drag the body while she's grinning,
Here we go again,
she shuts the door while undressing
(chorus)
Every time she puts one down
she says that it will be the last.
Then she lays her maid's dress out
as I smoke on the kitchen chair
No she won't behave
but what can I really do about what she does,
she's still my girl
(chorus)
She kept me in the room
she wanted me to come too
I said that I can wait until
we're home to be inside you
but she said, "Right now"
I can't deny her anyhow
so we did it by the corpse
sex and death is what she's all about
