We went one day about a month ago
To have a little fun in Mexico
We ended up in a gambling spot
Where the liquor flow-owed and the dice were hot
So here we are in the Tijuana Jail
Ain't got no frie-ends to go our bail
So here we'll stay 'cause we can't pay
Just send our mail to the Tijuana Jail
I was shootin' dice, rakin' in the dough (long green)
And then I heard the whistle blow
We started to run when a man in blue
Said "senor, come with me 'cause I want ou."
So here we are in the Tijuana Jail
Ain't got no frie-ends to go our bail
So here we'll stay 'cause we can't pay
Just send our mail to the Tijuana Jail
Just five hundred dollars and they'll set us free
I couldn't raise a penny if ya threatened me
I know five "hunderd" don't sound like much
But just try to find somebody to touch
So here we are in the Tijuana Jail
Ain't got no frie-ends to go our bail
So here we'll stay 'cause we can't pay
Just send our mail to the Tijuana Jail
So here we are in the Tijuana Jail
Ain't got no frie-ends to go our bail
So here we'll stay 'cause we can't pay
Just send our mail to the Tijuana Jail
