Mexico Lyrics

Jimmy Buffett

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 I guess I'll have to go now
Americano's got the sleepy eyes But his body's still shakin' like a live wire Senorita with her eyes on fire Don't you know
Oh, Mexico It sounds so sweet with the sun sinkin' low The moon so bright likes to light up the night Make everything alright
Baby's hungry and the money's all gone The folks back home don't want to talk on the phone She gets a long letter and sends back a postcard Times are hard
Oh, down in Mexico I've never really been, so I don't really know Oh, Mexico I guess I'll have to go now
Oh, Mexico I've never really been but I'd sure like to go Oh Mexico I guess I'll have to go now
Talkin' 'bout Mexico Little honkey tonk out in Mexico South of Margaritaville, I've been told
Andale, Andale, vamonos Oh, yeah, let's load this cast of characters On that boat and head south Oh, yeah we got a wind at our back Smooth sailin' all the way We got old Nordstrom, he's our chef He's down in that galley cookin' up a Barometer Soup for us
We gotta stop at our offshore Bank of Bad Habits And make a deposit or a withdrawal I don't know which one, y'know We're goin' down to the land of the Mayans Yeah, they were here long before the cavemen were Cavemen in blue jeans oh, excuse me, that's not Politically Correct That's cave persons in blue jeans Skip, Wiley and Skink, we may run into them Up to no good down there
Watch out for those barefoot children Stompin' around in those puddles Oh, yeah, and that remittance man He's just goin' round and round He may run into 'ol Frank Bama Cruisin' around in the Hemisphere Dancer I don't know, I might have my Long Board down there
