| Went down to Mexico
|
| I drove my black El Camino
|
| I met up with an old gringo
|
| He showed me round, and said to call him Joe
|
| I was there about a week or so
|
| Wound up in the general hospital
|
| Joe said don’t drink the water no more
|
| How the hell was I supposed to know?
|
| Drove up to San Diego
|
| Saw a sign for Mission Beach
|
| And so, went way out deep into the ocean
|
| Saw a shark and had a stroke
|
| Back in the ambulance I go
|
| I had a dream about a girl I used to know
|
| She said «I got to warn ya bout Mexico and California»
|
| She said «I got to warn ya bout Mexico and California»
|
| Oh, yeah
|
| She said «I got to warn ya bout Mexico and California»
|
| Earthquakes and sharks to start us off
|
| If Chupacabras ain’t enough
|
| Black widow spiders and killer bees
|
| There ain’t no shade, there ain’t no trees
|
| Hot desert heat and polluted air
|
| And traffic jams beyond compare
|
| That’s all I got to warn ya bout Mexico and California
|
| Woke up and said I got to go
|
| Doc said «Relax, and take it slow»
|
| I tried to argue, but don’t you know
|
| Bout California and Mexico?
|
| Right then, the doctor hit the floor
|
| The building shook, then shook some more
|
| I looked down at him and swore
|
| «You son of a bitch! |
| I told you so!»
|
| Earthquakes and sharks to start us off
|
| If Chupacabras ain’t enough
|
| Black widow spiders and killer bees
|
| There ain’t no shade, there ain’t no trees
|
| Hot desert heat and polluted air
|
| And traffic jams beyond compare
|
| That’s all I got to warn ya bout Mexico and California
|
| Earthquakes and sharks to start us off
|
| If Chupacabras ain’t enough
|
| Black widow spiders and killer bees
|
| There ain’t no shade, there ain’t no trees
|
| Hot desert heat and polluted air
|
| And traffic jams beyond compare
|
| That’s all I got to warn ya bout Mexico and California
|
| Earthquakes and sharks to start us off
|
| If Chupacabras ain’t enough
|
| Black widow spiders and killer bees
|
| There ain’t no shade, there ain’t no trees
|
| Hot desert heat and polluted air
|
| And traffic jams beyond compare
|
| That’s all I got to warn ya bout Mexico and California |
