Down In Mexico Lyrics

Down In Mexico lyrics

Down in Mexicali

There's a crazy little place that I know

Where the
drinks are hotter than the chili sauce

And the boss is a cat named Joe



He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna [this is the way he
pronounces

it; to rhyme with "bandana"]

In a honky-tonk, down in
Mexico

He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache

In a
honky-tonk, down in Mexico



Well, the first time that I saw him

He was sittin' on a piano stool

I said "Tell me dad, when does the fun
begin?"

He just winked his eye and said "Man, be cool."



He
wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna

In a honky-tonk, down in
Mexico

He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache

In a
honky-tonk, down in Mexico





All of a sudden in
walks this chick



Joe starts playing on a Latin kick



Around her waist she wore three fishnets



She started dancin' with the castanets



I
didn't know just what to expect



She threw her arms
around my neck



We started dancin' all around the
floor

And then she did a dance I never saw before.



So if
you're south of the border

I mean down in Mexico

And you wanna get
straight,

Man, don't hesitate

Just look up a cat named Joe.



He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna

In a honky-tonk,
down in Mexico

He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache

In a
honky-tonk, down in Mexico



[Spoken by Carl Gardner:]

Yeah,
como est  usted senorita

Come with me to the border, south of the border,
that is

In Mexico, yeah in Mexico

You can get your kicks in
Mexico

Come with me baby, come with me, come with me, crazy, yeah
