[Verse 1]
I play my old guitar in this Mexican bar every Tuesday night
They got tequilla and sole it’s where the good times roll and they treat me just right
Got the sun and the sand right out the door
Not doin too bad for a good ol’ boy
Wish I’d done this a long time ago
Head on down to Mexico
[Verse 2]
There’s sun tanned senoritas and blended margueritas and the party begins
And if you feel like dancin’ you can take your chances and chime right in
Don’t know how much longer I can keep this up
But I’ll keep on playin long as people show up
If you want to take it nice and slow
Head on down to Mexico
[Chorus}
Where the sun sets down past the mountain top
And the sky starts to dance man if it could talk
It’s the sound of the waves crashing on the shore
That will always keep you coming back for more
Arizona California oh no hell no
I’m headin’ on down to Mexico
[Electric guitar solo first half of solo, Saxaphone solo second half]
[Bridge]
There’s no clock on the wall
And the best thing of all, you got no place to be
But ain’t life grand when the only plan
Is to be by the sand and the sea
[soft pause]
[Chorus 2]
Where the sun sets down past the mountain top
And the sky starts to dance man if it could talk
It’s the sound of the waves crashing on the shore
That will always keep you coming back for more
Arizona California oh no hell no
I’m headin’ on down to Mexico
Arizona California oh no hell no
I’m headin’ on down to Mexico
[Extro for 8 bars]
