LUPE VELEZ

She came in like a hurricane.
The storm never let up.
That Mexican Spitfire.
And her little Chihuahua pup.

I've heard the rumors. What everyone says.
I've heard the stories of LUPE VELEZ.

In the company of all those men.
You know the Coop, he finally tamed her.
At the end a pistol shot.
But it was Tarzan who renamed her.

I've heard the rumors. What everyone says.
I've heard the stories of LUPE VELEZ.

Boxing gloves for Christmas.
Don't go looking for excuses.
Call in the cops.
But it was Johnny with all the bruises.

I've heard the rumors. What everyone says.
I've heard the stories of LUPE VELEZ.

Divorced from the Ape Man.
Love with a man six years younger.
He gave her a child.
But wouldn't make an honest woman of her.

I've heard the rumors. What everyone says.
I've heard the stories of LUPE VELEZ.

At dinner with some of her friends.
You know her suicide talk spoiled it.
All alone in her room.
A belly full of pills and her head in the toilet.

I've heard the rumors. What everyone says.
I've heard the stories of LUPE VELEZ.
