Mexican Money

 

Mexican Money

(album: Lee Roy Parnell - 1990)


I been working on the boats in Galveston Bay
Holding on to what I can when I draw my pay
I love a girl south of the Rio Grande
Been saving up to bright her to the promised land
Bring her to the promised land

Well I got a few hundred but it ain't too much
Compared to just a smile from me one I love
So when I got a letter said she missed her man
I knew I was gonna have to change my plans
Gonna have to change my plans

I'm gonna trade my dollars for Mexican money
Mexican money that's what I need
Gonna live forever with my Mexican honey
She's there waiting for me

Well I left her standing down in the ocean breeze
Promised I would build a life for her and me
But I can't get ahead no matter how I try
I think it's time that I was telling Texas goodbye
Telling ol' Texas goodbye

So tonight I'm heading down to the borderline
Taking what I can leaving the rest behind
Long as I've got her there's one thing I know
I'll be the richest man in Mexico
Richest man in Mexico

I'm gonna trade my dollars for Mexican money...
I'm gonna trade my dollars for Mexican money...

done
