Way down here y ou need a r eason to move
Feel a fool r unning your s tateside games
Lose your load, l eave your m ind behind, Baby James
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so simple I just got t o go
The sun's so hot I forgot to go home
Guess I'll have to go now
'Americ ano' got the s leepy eye
But his body's still s haking l ike a live wire
Sleepy 'S enor ita' with the eyes on fire
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so sweet with the sun sinking low
Moon's so bright like to light up the night
Make everyt hing all right
Baby's h ungry and the m oney's all gone
The folks back h ome don't want to t alk on the phone
She gets a long l etter, sends b ack a postcard; times are hard
Oh, down in Mexico
I never really been so I don't really know
Oh, Mexico
I guess I'll have t o go
Oh, Mexico
I never really been but I'd sure l ike to go
Oh, Mexico
I guess I'll have t o go now
Talkin' 'bout i t Mexico
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
Oh, Mexic o
