What of Alicia - Terry Allen

What of Alicia Lyrics

Well, he just turned 17 when he left old Abilene
With his bags and permission from the kin
Yeah but things just weren't the same after his momma
Signed her name and let the navy take him inAh but what of Alicia Espanola?
13 years old, child of MexicoAnd he just turned 19 years when he learned to
Face his fears of growing up and acting like a man
He just cocked his sailor cap, stuck his hands down in his lap
Leaned back and stroked them girls in JapanAh but what of Alicia Espanola?
15 years old, girl of MexicoAnd he just turned 23 when he finally took his final leave
Anchored in the port of San Diego
Yeah, he met this border girl and he fancied her body's curl
So he married her, then carried her to ColoradoAh but what of Alicia Espanola
19 years old, an old woman but out of Mexico
