What Am I Doing Hangin' 'Round?

Just a loud mouth yankee, I went down to Mexico

I didn't have much time to spend, about a week or so

There I lightly took advantage of a girl who loved me so

But I found myself a-thinkin' when the time had come to go

What am I doing hangin' 'round?

I should be on that train and gone

I should be ridin' on that train to San Antone

What am I doing hangin' 'round?

She took me to the garden, just for a little walk

I didn't know much Spanish and there was no time for talk

Then she told me that she loved me, not with words but with a kiss

And like a fool I kept on thinkin' of a train I could not miss

What am I doing hangin' 'round?

I should be on that train and gone

I should be ridin' on that train to San Antone

What am I doing hangin' 'round?

Well, it's been a year or so and I wanna go back again

And if I get the money, well, I'll ride the same old train

But I guess your chances come but once and boy I sure missed mine

And still I can't stop thinkin' when I hear some whistle cryin'

What am I doing hangin' 'round?

I should be on that train and gone

I should be ridin' on that train to San Antone

What am I doing hangin' 'round?

What am I doing hangin' 'round?

I should be on that train and gone

I should be ridin' on that train to San Antone

What am I doing hangin' 'round?

What am I doing hangin' 'round?

I should be on that train and gone

I should be ridin' on that train to San Antone
