Mexico

(album: Shovels & Rope - 2008)

I won't let you go, I won't let you go
Not to Mississippi, not to Tupelo
I won't let you go, I won't let you go
Not to Detroit city, not to Chicago
If you're gonna leave, I'm begging you to please go all the way to Mexico

I won't let you leave, I won't let you leave
Not with all my Django, Emmylou and Steve
I wont let you leave, I won't let you leave
Not with my Revival tucked down in your sleeve
If you're gonna go, take the ones you gave to me all the way to Mexico

All the way to the shore, California Bay and I'll be fine
Cause I have taken you back for the last time

I won't set you free, I won't set you free
Not to say it's over, come right back to me
But if you're gonna go, I'm giving you the key
But only if you go to Mexico

All the way to the shore, California Bay and I'll be fine
Cause I have taken you back for the last time

If you're gonna go, baby won't you please
Go all the way to Mexico
