Intro: E          
 
E 
Hey little girl, is your daddy home 
                   A 
Did he go away and leave you all alone 
             B                             
Baby I been watching you for a long, long time 
     A                            B 
Come close, we could have us some fun 
      A                   B  
And after the burning is done 
     A                            B 
Our ruins will shine through the night 
                             E 
Where you took me with your Spanish eyes 
 
 
E 
Is your Saturday night special baby, is he good to you 
             A            
Does he have money, honey, like I do 
               B 
Can he do the things that I'll do for you 
        A                  B 
If your answer it isn't so clear 
       A                         B 
Then maybe you should stay right here 
     A                                    B 
And let your doubts slip away 'neath you sighs 
                  E 
Let me kiss your Spanish eyes 
 
 
bridge 
          B                                               E  
When the music it plays and the dancers sway with sweet emotion 
         B                                                E  
And the dance floor is filled with promises of complete devotion 
                   A 
Close to feel your motion 
                  B 
Yeah, bring it on in 
 
                        E 
Come on and stretch out baby, and call your daddy home 
              A 
I'm running tonight, I won't be long 
                 B 
I got something special baby, just meant for you 
A                               B 
Here where the road narrows and turns 
     A                              B 
The only light's from the fire that burns 
      A                      B 
Here 'neath the coal black skies 
                       E 
When I look into your Spanish eyes 
E 
Into your Spanish eyes 
E 
Into your Spanish eyes 
E 
Into your Spanish eyes
