In Nuevo Laredo the moon is aglow
In Nuevo Laredo in old Mexico.

In Nuevo Laredo in old Mexico
The other tourists they're spending their dough
But she spends her time singing love songs you see
And everytime she sang a song she thre a kiss to me
In Nuevo Laredo the moon is aglow
In Nuevo Laredo in old Mexico.

In Nuevo Laredo the blue Rio Grande
Was bright in the moonlight as I held her hand
She sang me a love song the whole lovely night
We kissed and kissed and kissed and kissed
Until the the morning light
In Nuevo Laredo the moon is aglow
In Nuevo Laredo in old Mexico.

In Nuevo Laredo I found true romance
With my senorita I sang and I danced
We had a fiesta from morning till night
And then her father caught us crumble for a fight.

In Nuevo Laredo I travel no more
Since her father hollered don't darken my door
But each night by moonlight I'm all happy man
You should see me swim to her across the Rio Grande
In Nuevo Laredo the moon is aglow
In Nuevo Laredo in old Mexico...
