Mexico

Lyrics

I’m sittin’ in the kitchen counting things that need done today, My list is getting longer but, my energy if fading day by day. I look at, the wintery sky and I watch the piling snow And all I think about is, MEXICO. Sittin’ on the sand, with a CERVACA in my hand Feelin’ the sun beating down on me While that Latin beat runs through my veins, it’s one sweet sweet sound And I smell tropics, as the snow keep falling down Gotta get a move on things won’t get done all by themselves Still gotta feed the horses and get, my butt to work before the clock strikes twelve. I look out the window and I watch the falling snow All I can think about is, MEXICO. Sittin’ on the sand, with a TEQUILA in my hand Feelin’ the sun beating down on me While that Latin beat runs through my veins, it’s one sweet sweet sound And I smell tropics, as the snow keep falling down Pull yourself together girl, there’s dishes to do and bills to pay. Still gotta do the shopping you were, suppose to get that done yesterday. As we put on our toques, and face the Alberta snow All we can think about is, MEXICO Sittin’ on the sand, with a CHI CHI in our hands, Feelin’ the sun beating down on me While that Latin beat runs through our veins It’s one sweet sweet sound And I smell tropics, and I smell tropics, and I smell tropics, Sigh…… Sittin’ on the sand, with a CORONA in our hands, Feelin’ the sun beating down on me While that Latin beat runs through our veins It’s one sweet sweet sound And I smell tropics, and I smell tropics, and I smell tropics, As the snow keep falling down.
