ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO
"Mountain Of Mud"

Try to hide a pearl in a mountain of mud
You know the water's gonna find it someday
I tried to tell the girl of a stick in the mud
But she didn't learn it that way
So I'm feeling kinda bad
I asked her for a hand
She said I didn't make you that way
Well that's not the point and even if it was
You know I still need some love today

I want some, I really want some, I want some now
I want some, I really want some, I want some now

You know if I held the key to the pearly gates
You know I'd open up and let you inside
If I had a dream to which you could relate
You know I'd let it ride
Though the price, even that I would pay
To put you by my side
So c'mon little beggar won't you jump inside
C'mon let's really ride

I want some, I really want some, I want some now
I want some, I really want some, I want some now

If you tried to hide a pearl in a mountain of mud...
