Mexico        (J.D.Souther)


She was here for the week end we were never really such good friends
Say the story has to have an ending so you're making it up as you go
And you were on a holiday in Mexico spending your daddy's dough
I guess I got so lonely without you I had to let somebody know

It was never like our love I don't know what I was thinking of
But she gave me such a friendly shove I couldn never say no
And you were on a holiday in Mexico spending your daddy's dough
You see I got so sad without you I had to let somebody know

Well I could be walking the streets of Ranosa wearing out my shoes
Well I could be walking the streets of Ranosa with nothing to do
You know it didn't take a thing from you I was yours and the lady knew
You could even say that we were true she's a friend of yours you
know

And you were on a holiday in Mexico spending your daddy's dough
I guess I got so lonely without you I had to let somebody know
