I just got tired of that same old job

tired of fighting that freeway mob

I bet you never thought I'd really go

I'd never get as far as Mexico



I've even learned to speak the language some

down on the beach drinking coke and rum

You wouldn't know me with this golden glow

soaking sun in Mexico



I'm eating right and I'm living good

doing everything I said I would

I should have left a long time ago

who needs you, I got Mexico



Through it all nothings really changed

no matter what honey that's a shame

I still love you that's the way it goes

He's got you, I've got Mexico



I'm eating right and I'm living good

doing everything I said I would

I lost you a long time ago

He's got you, I've got Mexico
