O Mexico

(Michael G. Joyce - Irene Kelley)



I'm catchin' this south bound train

I've had enough of the pouring rain

Chilled to the bone

I have to go.



Love was never a friend of mine

the only friend that I have is time

It's down the track

Ain't looking back.



Mexico, o Mexico

I long to see your border town

Mexico, o Mexico

Adios mi corazon.



The cars are clickin' the night along

But all I hear is a heartbreak song

Haunting me

Relentlessly.



Come the morning and I will stand

On the banks of the Rio Grande

A brand new day

Wash those tears away.



Mexico, o Mexico

I long to see your border town

Mexico, o Mexico

Adios mi corazon.



There's nothin' like the feel

Of the steel against the steel

And you can't forget

The crying of the rail.



There's nothin' like the sight

Of a moonlit desert night

To heal a broken heart

That was so frail.



Mexico, o Mexico

I long to see your border town

Mexico, o Mexico

Adios mi corazon.



O Mexico. mhm...
