E			      A
Here comes another song about Mexico
	     C#m
I just can't help myself
		   B
I lost my old lady

Got my lures, got my bobbers, now I'm gonna go
E
Got off in the wrong direction
A
Found a hooker and lost my erection
     C#m 				       B
So I had to lie in the letter to the boys back home

		 A
	Well the good guys and the bad guys
			E		      B
	Well they never work past noon around here
		 A					F#m
	They sit side to side in cantinas, talk to senoritas
		       E
	And drink warm beer

Intro

E				    A
Here comes the same old verse about Mexico
	      C#m
We just can't help ourselves
		       B
We lost our old ladies

Got our lures, got our bobbers, now we're gonna go
E
Got off in the wrong direction
A
Found some hookers and lost our erections
      C#m					B
So we had to lie in the letter to the boys back home
