Ev'ry year along about this time it all goes dry There's nothing round for love or money That'll get you high Henry got pissed off and said he'd run to Mexico To see if he could come back holdin' Twenty keys of gold
Now the road to Acapulco is very hard indeed And it isn't any better if you haven't any weed Henry's driving hard and straight On twisty mountain roads There's fifty people waiting back At home for Henry's load
Chorus: And now he's rollin' down the mountain Going fast, fast, fast And if he blows it this one's gonna be his last Run to Acapulco to turn the golden keys Henry keep the brakes on for this corner if you please
Henry got to Mexico and turned his truck around He's talking with the man who has it Growing from the ground Henry tasted, he got wasted, couldn't even see How he's gonna drive like that is not too clear to me
Chorus
Sunday afternoon Tijuana is a lovely town Bullfight brings the tourists and Their money flowing down The border guards are much too busy There at five o' clock Henry's truckin' right on through, He hardly even stopped
