歌曲歌詞
I left out of Tucson
With no destination in mind
I was runnin' from trouble and the jailterm
The Judge had in mind
And the border meant
Freedom a new life romance
And that's why I thought I should go
And start my life over on
The seashores of old Mexico
My first night in Juarez
Lost all the money I had
One bad senorita
Made use of one innocent lad
But I must keep on runnin'
It's too late to turn back
I'm wanted in Tucson I'm told
Yeah an' things'll blow over
On the seashores of old Mexico
Two Mexican farmers en route
To a town I can't say
Let me ride on the back
Of a flatbed halfloaded with hay
Down through Durango Colima Almiera
Then in the Manzanillos
Where I slept in the sunshine
On the seashores of old Mexico
After one long siesta
I came wide awake in the night
I was startled by someone
Who shadowed the pale moonlight
My new found companion
One young senorita
Who offered a broken hello
To the gringo she found
On the seashores of old Mexico
She spoke of Sonora and swore
That she'd never return
For her Mexican husband
She really had no great concern
'Cause she loved the gringo
My red hair and lingo
That's all I needed to know
Yeah I found what I needed
On the seashores of old Mexico
Yeah she loved the gringo
My red hair and lingo
That's all I needed to know ha ha
Yeah I found what I needed
On the seashores of old Mexico
