Monday night heading home from work, can't keep my hunger at bay
Mariachis play on my radio, and I wish it was tomorrow
The weekend went by way too fast, and I worked so hard today
I had to skip my lunch again, now all I feel is sorrow
In four more days I'll get paid and have more than enough for a bite
But I didn't plan ahead again, and it's so hard to have to wait
I don't have enough to go and see all my amigos tonight
But I'm so very hungry now, and tomorrow it will be too late
Oh how I wish it was taco Tuesday today
Can't get my fill and still pay the bill
But my mouth it waters thinking about the thrill
Oh how I wish it was taco Tuesday today
My empty stomach is craving satiety
My empty wallet requires a special price you see
Oh how I wish it was taco Tuesday today
I dream of a future plan after I become a rich man
I will observe it any day of the week, like I'm in Mexico
'Till then I'll blow what I have, on cheap food that is bland
I won't go if all I can afford is just one bean burrito
Oh how I wish it was taco Tuesday today
Can't get my fill and still pay the bill
But my mouth it waters thinking about the thrill
Oh how I wish it was taco Tuesday today
My empty stomach is craving satiety
My empty wallet requires a special price you see
Oh how I wish it was taco Tuesday today
Maybe next week I'll make my money last
And stay away from the casino
And if I should succeed at last
I will celebrate with a grito! (joyous yell here)
I dream of a future plan after I become a rich man
I will observe it any day of the week, like I'm in Mexico
'Till then I'll blow what I have, on cheap food that is bland
I won't go if all I can afford is just one bean burrito
Oh how I wish it was taco Tuesday today
Can't get my fill and still pay the bill
But my mouth it waters thinking about the thrill
Oh how I wish it was taco Tuesday today
My empty stomach is craving satiety
My empty wallet requires a special price you see
Oh how I wish it was taco Tuesday today
Oh como desearia que fuera martes de tacos hoy

Inspired by my love of Mexican culture. Probably not as good as my similar song Three Mariachis, but nonetheless a ton of fun to write a song, teach it to my wife real quick on guitar, then have her work her magic on accordion. She can learn any song by ear almost immediately after one listen, so it's an amazing talent she has to witness.
