Seu00f1orita With A Necklace Of Tears Lyrics - Paul Simon

I have a wisdom tooth 

inside my crowded face 

i have a friend who is a born-again 

found his savior's grace 

i was born before my father 

and my children before me 

we are born and born again 

like the waves of the sea 

that's the way it's always been 

and that's how i want it to be 

Nothing but good news 

there is a frog in south america 

whose venom is a cure 

for all the suffering that mankind 

must endure 

more powerful than morphine 

and soothing as the rain 

a frog in south america 

has the antidote for pain 

that's the way it's always been 

and that's the way i like it 

Some people never say no 

some people never complain 

some folks have no idea 

and others will never explain 

that's the way it's always been 

that's the way i like it 

and that's how i want it to be 

that's the way it's always been 

that's the way i like it 

and that's how i want it to be 

If i could play all the memories 

in the neck of my guitar 

i'd write a song called 

señorita with a necklace of tears 

and every tear a sin i'd committed 

oh these many years 

that's who i was 

that's the way it's always been 

Some people always want more 

some people are what they lack 

some folks open a door 

walk away and never look back 

i don't want to be a judge 

and i don't want to be a jury 

i know who i am 

lord knows who i will be 

that's the way it's always been 

that's the way i like it 

and that's how i want it to be 

that's the way it's always been 

that's the way i like it 

and that's how i want it to be
