Blame It On Mexico

George Strait · Strait Out of the Box [MCA] [1995]

(Darrell Steadtler)



In a bar in Acuna called Ma Crosby's

I found myself not feeling any pain

I told a Frisco girl I'd come for freedom

She said she'd only come to catch a train

We struck up some idle conversation

Traded all the troubles on our minds

One thing led to another in the evening

And I fell in love again for my last time.



Blame it on Mexico if you need a reason

Say it's too much guitar music, tequila, salt, and lime

Blame it on Mexico but she's the reason

That I fell in love again for my last time.



Daylight dawned and found me in Del Rio

In a run down motel room as dark as hell

I felt all the pains of a morning after

And all alone as far as I could tell

Why she left I have no way of knowing

Guess she caught her train and that's a crime

She took everything I ever wanted

And I fell in love again for my last time.



Blame it on Mexico if you need a reason

Say it's too much guitar music, tequila, salt, and lime

Blame it on Mexico but she's the reason

That I fell in love again for my last time.



Blame it on Mexico if you need a reason

Say it's too much guitar music, tequila, salt, and lime

Blame it on Mexico but she's the reason

That I fell in love again for my last time.



Blame it on Mexico if you need a reason

Say it's too much guitar music, tequila, salt, and lime

Blame it on Mexico but she's the reason

That I fell in love again for my last time...
