Señorita with a Necklace of Tears

[Verse 1] 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 [Refrain] That's the way it's always been And that's how I want it to be That's the way it's always been And that's how I want it to be [Verse 2] 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 [Refrain] That's the way it's always been And that's the way I like it [Pre-Chorus] Some people never say no Some people never complain Some folks have no idea And others will never explain [Chorus] That's the way it's always been and that's the way I like it And that's how I want it to be That's the way it's always been and that's the way I like it And that's how I want it to be [Verse 3] If I could play all the memories in the neck of my guitar I would write a song called "Señorita with a Necklace of Tears" And every tear a sin I'd committed all these many years That's who I was, that's the way it's always been [Verse 4] Some people always want more, some people are what they lack Some folks open the 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 [Chorus] That's the way it's always been and that's the way I like it And that's how I want it to be That's the way it's always been and that's the way I like it And that's how I want it to be
