(Mark Narmore/Elisabeth Rose)



Last week you told me our love was goin' south

So I tried to follow it I tried to track you down

Thought I caught wind of it outside of San Antone

But it was just a ghost so I kept right on goin'



I drove an told myself you wouldn't lie to me

Tears of confusion fell and I wiped them on my sleeve

Two tanks of gas and a floorboard full of coffee cups

I finally hit the border and Mexico was all there was



As I crossed that river the sun was settin'

But I started seein' the light

I walk those streets and I talked to myself

And I decided I would be all right

I drank some Tequila

I said,who needs you

I don't have to do this alone

Me and Mexico are lettin' you go



I bought a big sombrero and made me laugh

Funny I don't think we were ever happy like that

Country full of strangers a thousand miles from home

The first time in a long time that I have felt alone



A band of merry archers was playing in the crowd

I couldn't understand the words but singing right out loud

Here is this border town that's where your memory lays

And when I head back home here's where it's gonna stay



As I cross that river the sun was settin'

But I started seein' the light

I walked those streets and I talked to myself

And I decided I would be all right

I drank some Tequila

I said,who needs you

I don't have to do this alone

Me and Mexico are lettin' you go



I drank some Tequila

I said,who needs you

I don't have to do this alone

Me and Mexico are lettin' you go



Me and Mexico are lettin' you go

(Me and Mexico)
