I just got tired of that same old job Tired of fightin' that freeway mob I bet you never thought i'd really go I'd never get as far as mexico But i've even learned to speak the language some Down on the beach drinkin' coke and rum You wouldn't know me with this golden glow Soakin' sun in mexico I'm eatin' right and i'm livin' good Doin' everything i said i would I should've left a long time ago He's got you i got mexico Through it all nothin's really changed No matter what and honey that's a shame I still love you that's the way it goes He's got you i got mexico
