Lyrics

Way down here, you need a reason to move
Feel a fool, running your stateside games
Lose your load, leave your mind behind, Baby James
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so simple, I just got to go
The sun's so hot I forgot to go home
Guess I'll have to go now
Americano got the sleepy eye
But his body's still shaking like a live wire
Sleepy Señorita with the eyes on fire
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so sweet with the sun sinking low
The moon's so bright like to light up the night
Make everything all right
Baby's hungry and the money's all gone
The folks back home don't wanna talk on the phone
She gets a long letter, sends back 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 to go
Oh, Mexico
I never really been but I'd sure like to go
Sing woah, Mexico
I guess I'll have to go now
Talking 'bout in Mexico (Mexico)
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
Oh, Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Oh, Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Oh, Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Oh, Mexico, Mexico
