Down Into Mexico

There was a casino out in Vegas Had a million dollars on the wall Got my imagination workin' overtime I knew I had to have it all I knew I had to have it all Sherrie was a dancer, she was a schemer We came up with a fool-proof plan She was workin' it from the inside And I was her getaway man Yeah, I was her getaway man Takin' it deep down into Mexico No turnin' back once you go down that road Just one place for a desperate Desperado to go Deep down into Mexico Deep down into Mexico It all went smooth and sweet as honey We got it all and nobody got hurt Me and Sherrie, we were countin' the money But now the little gun slid out of her purse Yeah, that little gun slid out of her purse That's when she told me 'bout her lover That's when I knew I was in a terrible mess She took the blame, and he took the money I took a bullet in my chest I took a bullet in my chest Deep down into Mexico No turnin' back once you go down that road Just one place for a desperate Desperado to go Deep down into Mexico Deep down into Mexico Deep down into Mexico Deep down into Mexico
