Way down h ere y ou need a r eason to m ove
Feel a f ool r unning your s tateside g ames
Lose your l oad, l eave your m ind beh ind, Baby James
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so simple I just got t o go
The sun's so hot I forgot to go home
Gu ess I'll have to go now
'A meric ano' got the s leepy eye
But his b ody's still s haking l ike a live wire
Sl eepy 'S enor ita' with the e yes on fire
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so sweet with the sun sinking low
Moon's so bright like to light up the night
Ma ke everything all right
Ba by's h ungry and the m oney's all gone
The f olks back h ome don't want to t alk on the phone
She g ets 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 g uess I'll have to go
Oh, Mexico
I never really been but I'd sure l ike to go
Oh, Mexico
I g uess I'll have to go now
Talkin' 'bout i t Mexico
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
Oh, Mexic o
