We were standing at the border
Waiting for the man to come
We didn't have a problem
Till he invented oneHe said take it easy, take it slow
No one moves
Till I say soRunning for the border
Down in MexicoWe made it to Chihuahua
With the setting sun
The fans were going crazy
Everyone had funHe said take it easy, take it slow
We've got all day
We'll make the showRunning for the border
Down in MexicoWe met the Federales
They wouldn't go away
So we gave them lots of money
It was all our fuckin' payThey said take it easy, take it slow
No one moves
'Til I say soRunning for the border
Down in Mexico
