No México

I'm down in Mexico had to go won't be home no more

I want mom and dad to know I miss and love them so

Though I'll never see them anymore

The day that I turned twenty one I could hardly wait

To say goodbye to mom and dad and shake the hand of fate

Fate was with me from the start until that fateful day

A big man he took my sweetheart and I took his life away

Now I'm down in Mexico...

I stood and watched the man as he fell and then I heard the policemen's whistle blow

And when I thought about that prison cell I thought about old Mexico

Now I'm down in Mexico...

Estou no México, tive que ir, não vou mais voltar pra casa

Quero que mamãe e papai saibam que sinto falta e os amo demais

Embora eu nunca mais os veja

No dia em que completei vinte e um, mal podia esperar

Pra me despedir de mamãe e papai e apertar a mão do destino

O destino esteve comigo desde o começo até aquele dia fatídico

Um cara grande levou meu amor e eu tirei a vida dele

Agora estou no México...

Eu fiquei parado e assisti o homem cair e então ouvi o apito da polícia

E quando pensei naquela cela, lembrei do velho México

Agora estou no México...
