Goin' Down to Mexico
Lyricist:Frank Beard, William Gibbons, Joe Hill
I was on my way down to Mexico There was trouble on the rise It was nothing more than I'd left behind Which was much to my surprise
I turned around and lit a cigarette Wiped the dust off of my boots When up ahead I saw the crowd I knew it was no use It's been the same way for, oh so long It looks like I'm singing the same old song
A fine and fancy man was he Doing good things for the poor Givin' rides in his rockin' eighty-eight for free They could not hope for more
When it came my turn he said to me Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 'Have I seen your face before?' I said, 'Oh no, you must be wrong I'm from a distant shore' So if you don't mind, I'll just move along But it looks like I'm singin' the same old song
A nineteen forty movie star With a long forgotten name She was a sexy mess in her pleated dress Still hangin' on to fame
With forgotten lines she missed her cue And left a glass of wine at home She was singin' the same song that I was Could we both be wrong? So hand in hand, we walked along Each of us singin' the same old song
