Down In Mexico
TRK and Trent Summar
I was living in El Paso. I hitched a ride with this dude I know.
He was headed on down to a border town. I thought I might just hang around.
He said have you ever seen the Rio Grande. Have you ever heard a mariachi band.
He painted me a picture of sun and sand, many margaritas and a long weekend
But there's one thing that I know. If you're ever down in Mexico
and you see a little senorita stare, you better act like you don't care
I'll tell you a story of love and sin and the trouble this gringo's in
and why I'm a dead man if I go back to Juarez Mexico.
At a late night bar in some hotel, down form heaven an angel fell.
We found love with the Cuervo Gold, the sweet sweet kisses, and the lies she told.
But Rosalinda's ex was a bad outlaw. He was wanted in Sonoma and the whole Baja.
She forgot to mention he was back in town, and he'd heard a couple rumors she was messing around
But there's one thing that I know. If you're ever down in Mexico
and you see a little senorita stare, you better act like you don't care
I'll tell you a story of love and sin and the trouble this gringo's in
and why I'm a dead man if I go back to Juarez Mexico.

He came looking for me that very same day, with a chip on his shoulder and a 38
He was too drunk to shoot, so I could take him down
But I got a cousin up in Omaha. He's a lawyer and he said he could get me off.
But I busted right out of this two bit jail. You can tell the federales they can go to hell.
But there's one thing that I know. If you're ever down in Mexico
and you see a little senorita stare, you better act like you don't care
I'll tell you a story of love and sin and the trouble this gringo's in
and why I'm a dead man if I go back to Juarez Mexico.
