lyrics:

Guacamole

Verse 1
I met her at the mercado, she's buyin' avacados
And man, she really turned me on.
She reached for my pepper, I grabbed her tomatoes
I knew, it wouldn't be very long.

Verse 2
She went to the mesa, I grabbed my cerveza,
I got the onions and lemon.
And the way she looked at me, man I could clearly see,
That it, wouldn’t be very long

Chorus
Guacamole, GUACAMOLE, Guacamole, GUACAMOLE
We'd be makin' guacamole all night long.
Guacamole, GUACAMOLE, Guacamole, GUACAMOLE
We'd be makin' guacamole all night long.

Accordion and Guitar Solos

Verse 3
She headed for the line, and I fell in right behind,
Man, she sure looked good to me.
She reached for her money, I said "Wait a minute, honey,
I believe, this one is on me."

Verse 4
We got in my pickup, we started to back up,
We headed on down the road.
We went to mi casa, tortillas de masa,
We made guacamole all night long.

Chorus
Guacamole, GUACAMOLE, Guacamole, GUACAMOLE
We'd be makin' guacamole all night long.
Guacamole, GUACAMOLE, Guacamole, GUACAMOLE
We'd be makin' guacamole all night long.
