Down In Mexico

Coasters · Baby That Is Rock 'n' Roll [2011]

Down in Mexicali

There's a crazy little place that I know

Where the drinks are hotter, than the chili sauce

And the boss is a cat named Joe



(Chorus)

He wears a red bandana

Plays a blues piana

In a honky tonk, down in Mexico

He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache

In honky tonk, down in Mexico



Well, the first time that I saw him

He was sittin on a piano stool

I said "Tell me man, when does the fun begin?"

He just winked his eye and said "Man, be cool."



(Chorus)

He wears a red bandana

Plays a blues piana

In a honky tonk, down in Mexico

He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache

In a honky tonk, down in Mexico



In Mexico...



All of a sudden in walks a chick



In Mexico...



Joe starts playin on a latin kick



In Mexico...



Around her waist she wore three fishnets



In Mexico...



She started dancin with the castanets



In Mexico...



I didn't know just what to expect



In Mexico...



She threw her arms around my neck



In Mexico...



We started dancin all around the floor (In Mexico...)

And then she did a dance I never saw before



So if you're south of the border

I mean down in Mexico

And you wanna get straight

Man, don't hesitate

Just look up a cat named Joe



(Chorus)

He wears a red bandana

Plays a blues piana

In a honky tonk, down in Mexico

He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache

In a honky tonk, down in Mexico



[Spoken by Carl Gardner:]



Yeah, como esta usted seƱorita

Come with me to the border, south of the border, that is

In Mexico, yeah in Mexico

You can get your kicks in Mexico

Come with me baby, come with me, come with me, crazy, yeah
