MARGIE SAID, ROY
YOU AIN'T LISTENIN' TO ME
AND I'VE GOT A WHOLE
LOT MORE TO SAY
ROY JUST CROSSED THE FLOOR
AND PICKED UP HIS CAR KEYS
AND SHE AIN'T SEEN OR
HEARD FROM HIM TO THIS DAY
AND THAT'S WHY
GOD MADE MEXICO
A PLACE WHERE
WE CAN LAY LOW
AND THE CUERVO GOES
DOWN NICE AND SLOW
AND THE WARM WIND BLOWS
THAT'S WHY GOD MADE MEXICO
AND BETTY FIXED JOE
DINNER EVERY NIGHT
HALF PAST SIX
'CAUSE THAT'S WHEN HE
ROLLED THROUGH THAT DOOR
FOR SIXTEEN YEARS
AND NOT A THANK YOU
FROM HIS LIPS
SHE DON'T FIX HIM
DINNER NO MORE
AND THAT'S WHY
GOD MADE MEXICO
A PLACE WHERE
WE CAN LAY LOW
WHERE THE CUERVO GOES
DOWN NICE AND SLOW
AND THE WARM WINDS BLOW
THAT'S WHY GOD MADE MEXICO
'CAUSE LIFE IS SWEET
IN A BORDER TOWN
YOU LEARN TO LET
YOUR HAIR DOWN
AND YOU DON'T MAKE TROUBLE
YOU LEARN TO DANCE
THE FANDANGO
YOU CHANGE YOUR NAME
MAYBE CHANGE YOUR FACE
GET USED TO BEANS
AND CHILLI PASTE
AND YOU LEARN TO LIVE AND LOVE
LIFE IN THE SLOW LANE
AND THAT'S WHY
GOD MADE MEXICO
A PLACE WHERE
WE CAN LAY LOW
MAYBE MONTEREY
OR ACAPULCO
ANYWHERE THE
WARM WINDS BLOW
DON'T YOU KNOW
THAT'S WHY GOD MADE MEXICO
OH-WOAH
THAT'S WHY GOD MADE
MADE MEXICO...
