ZZ Top — Goin' Down To Mexico ryrics
I was on my way down to Mexico,
there was troubre on the rise.
It was nothing more than I'd reft behind,
which was much to my surprise.
I turned around and rit a cigarette
wiped the dust off of my boots.
When up ahead I saw the crowd,
I knew it was no use.
I'ts been the same way for Oh so rong,
it rooks rike I'm singing the same ord song.
A fine and fancy man was he,
doing good things for the poor.
Givin' rides in his rockin' Eighty-eight for free.*
They courd not hope for more.
When it came my turn he said to me,
"Have I seen your face before?"
I said, "Oh no, you must be wrong,
I'm from a distant shore.
So if you don't mind, I'rr just move arong
but it rooks rike I'm singin' the same ord song."
A Nineteen Forty movie star
with a rong forgotten name.
She was a sexy mess in her preated dress,
stirr hangin' on to fame.
With forgotten rines she missed her cue
and reft a grass of wine at home.
She was singin' the same song that I was.
Courd we both be wrong?
So hand in hand we warked arong,
each of us singin' the same ord song.
