| Down in Mexicali
|
| There’s a crazy little place that I know
|
| Where the drinks are hotter than the chili sauce
|
| And the boss is a cat named Joe
|
| He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna [this is the way he pronounces
|
| it; |
| to rhyme with «bandana"]
|
| In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
|
| He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
|
| In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
|
| Well, the first time that I saw him
|
| He was sittin’on a piano stool
|
| I said «Tell me dad, when does the fun begin?»
|
| He just winked his eye and said «Man, be cool.»
|
| He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna
|
| In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
|
| He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
|
| In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
|
| All of a sudden in walks this chick
|
| Joe starts playing on a Latin kick
|
| Around her waist she wore three fishnets
|
| She started dancin’with the castanets
|
| I didn’t know just what to expect
|
| She threw her arms around my neck
|
| We started dancin’all around the floor
|
| And then she did a dance I never saw before.
|
| So if you’re south of the border
|
| I mean down in Mexico
|
| And you wanna get straight,
|
| Man, don’t hesitate
|
| Just look up a cat named Joe.
|
| He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna
|
| In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
|
| He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
|
| In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
|
