South of the border The first time i played there The sun was chile hot Drank that dos xx beer As she made her entrance How her perfect hips did sway When she walked up to me And asked me please 'seņor, can you play? The mexico city The mexico city blues The mexico city Mexico city blues'
Dancing up a storm She was blowing me a kiss How she smiled at me While i worked my frets The waiter kept on pouring Tequila from his loaded tray And as he winked at me I heard him say 'por favor, please play The mexico city The mexico city blues The mexico city Mexico city blues'
It was getting late I saw her getting up to go I packed up my guitar And stumbled to the door But she was with the waiter Laughing as they walked away And as he turned around I heard him say 'seņor, it's okay You got The mexico city The mexico city blues The mexico city Mexico city blues I got The mexico city The mexico city blues The mexico city Mexico city blues.
