Down the road a ways i've heard said a new day's coming on
Where the women folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone
I'll believe it when i see it and i haven't seen it yet
Don't mind me just keep on talking i'm just looking for my hat
There ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no way to understand
How that border crossing feeling makes afool out of a man
If i'd never felt the sunshine then i would not curse the rain
If my feet could fit a railroad track,i guess i'd been a train
Me and Louise Higgins-Botham used to chase across the yard
Back in 1947 that's when more than times were hard
Well pity me i didn't find the line in time like a fool
In front of God and everybody i politely blew my cool
Ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no comfort in the king
When you're down in Madamoris getting busted by the man
If i'd never felt the sunshine,Hell i would not curse the rain
If i hadn't been railroaded well i guess i'd been a train

Don't mind [B]me just keep on talking i'm just l[E]ooking for my hat
There ai[A]n't no God in Mexico,ain't no [E]way to understand
How that border crossing feeling makes afool out of a m[A]an

M[D]e and Louise Higgins-Botham used to ch[E]ase across the yard
Back in 1[A]947 that's when mo[D]re than times were hard
Well pity me i didn't find the line in t[E]ime like a fool
In front of G[B]od and everybody i pol[E]itely blew my cool
Ain't no G[A]od in Mexico,ain't no c[E]omfort in the king
When you're down in Madamoris getting busted by the m[A]an
If i'd never felt the sunshine,Hell i w[E]ould not curse the rain
