Juanita Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah, it cost me a bundle
Trying to track you down, it's true
Yeah and it's the truth
I'm looking from town to town for you

[Pre-Chorus]
You know you never offered much security
Do you know I'm gonna get you back?
You just wait and see

[Chorus]
I'm never goin' back Juanita
I know you never got my call
I'm never goin' back Juanita
Never at all

[Verse 2]
Year I'm spending a long time
Trying to work it out for true
Yeah, it's such small crime
Thirsting over you

[Pre-Chorus]
Living in a Chelsea flat
Seems so lonely now
I don't know, gotta get you back
I just don't know how
[Chorus]
I'm never goin' back, Juanita
I know you didn't get my call
I'm never goin' back, Juanita
Never at all, yeah
I'm never goin' back, Juanita yeah
I'm never goin' back, Juanita
Never goin' back, Juanita
Never at all
Never, never at all
Never, never at all

[Verse 3]
Yeah, I just got to tell you
I'm gonna leave it up to you
Yeah what more can I say?
What more can I do?

[Pre-Chorus]
Living in a Chelsea flat
Seems so lonely now
I just know I gotta get you back
I just don't know how

[Chorus]
I'm never goin' down on Juanita
Never gonna make that call
Never goin' down on Juanita
Never at all, yeah okay
I'm never goin' down on Juanita, dig it
Never gonna make that call
Never goin' down on Juanita
Two fingers at all, yeah
I'm never goin' back, Juanita
I'm never goin' down on you, Juanita
I'm never goin' back, Juanita
I'm never goin' back, Juanita
Never goin' back, Juanita
Never at all, all

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
