GONNA GO TO MEXICO

I’M GONNA GO TO MEXICO,

FIND A PLACE NO ONE KNOWS,

SOMEPLACE PEACEFUL AND SLOW,

GONNA GO TO MEXICO.

 

TAKE MY OLD PAWN SHOP GUITAR,

OH, I WON’T NEED MY CAR,

I’LL LEAVE IT IN A TEXAS TOWN.

DON’T MATTER IF IT’S EVER FOUND.

 

I CAN DREAM AND I CAN SING,

DO ANYTHING I PLEASE.

TIMELESS IS THE MOMENT,

I DO BELIEVE.

 

TELL MY MOMMA AND MY DAD,

LIFE’S TOO SHORT TO LIVE IT SO SAD,

FROM CHILDREN’S LULLABIES,

TOO QUICKLY LIFE GOES BY.
