"San Miguel" — from Keepin' the Summer Alive (1980). A tropical island escape piece.

Started off the day with a thought
That took me far away
I think I found a place
Where I know I can be forever
It's down in San Miguel
(Lookin' for lookin' for lookin' for a lady)
Could be in Mexico
Where you don't need no dough
I know I'm gonna go
Lookin' for the ladies of love
I go where I'm going
Goin' straight ahead
Down in to San Miguel
Over the top
We cross the border now
Headin' in to San Miguel
That's where I'm gonna go
(lookin for lookin for lookin' for a lady)
Hope you will be comin' too
You can kick off your shoes
Come on it's time to go
Lookin' for the ladies of love
Ow ow
Yiyiyiyiyiyi
It's down in San Miguel
(Lookin for lookin for lookin for a lady)
Could be in Mexico
Where you don't need no dough
I know I'm gonna go
Lookin' for the ladies of love
La la la la
La la la la
