Down on Olvera street
A Mejicano cry
"Agrieto, te quiero, te quiero, te adoro"
This is where the Anglo gets his Latin lover's sigh
"Adios, muchachos y buleros, and goodbye"

Salsa rumbles rafters in a chop shop filled with cars
Custom chopped and channeled, with a drag race in their stars
City of Angels, be all you can be
Be movies, be A-list, be seen just to see
Your part repeat
The heartbeat in L.A.
