Mexican Divorce Lyrics


Down below El Paso lies Juarez
Mexico is different yes like a travel folder says
Cross the Rio Grande and you will find
An old adobe house
Where you leave your past behindOne day married, next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time, and all you to get
A Mexican divorceAs I came into this empty house last night
Looked at all my windows, yes I did but I couldn't find one lightI found you on that road to Mexico
And now, my love, I beg
Please, oh, please, don't goOne day married, next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time, and all you to get
A Mexican divorceFinding love takes so long
Walking out must be wrong
It's a sin for you to get a Mexican divorceOne day married, next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
