Got a message this morning
                        
And the message was clear
                        
She's changing planes in New Orleans
                        
Moving back to this hemisphere

                         
She got too lonely in Rio
                    
Going out of her mind
                
Hard to keep her profile down
                      
With a face so well defined

Chorus: 
		      
Now she swears it's behind her
                 
All the smugglers schemes
                  
How could such a nightmare

Come out of such a beautiful dream
                        
Who would think you'd get lonely
                       
In a town that knows no shame
                  
Where the biggest attraction
   
Is playing dangerous games

Playing dangerous games

Playing

Started out in Vallarta
On just a innocent fling
She took it back to Newport Beach
And turned it into a diamond ring

But one thing led to another
She got caught up in a tide
She was the queen of the social scene
With all the jokers by her side

Chorus + Intro
A South American sailor
Who wore the naval tattoo
Took her so much higher than
Any man she ever knew

In all the capital cities
He's known by numerous names
When the heat came down on the underground
His name was already changed

Chorus

In the festival season
Right in the middle of town
Man was there with an icy stare
To make sure that the deal went down

And just as quick as it started
It was over and done
The icy stare turned into a flare
On the fire of his gun

Chorus and end w\ intro
