I’m sippin’ on a Lone Star
Headin’ south alone
Leavin’ all my broken dreams behind
Gonna sun-bake my body
On a beach near Acapulco
And let that tequila wash my mind
I’m givin’ up the fast life
Gonna slow it down
And drift along with the flow
I’ll let the good times
Show me where to go
Somewhere south in Mexico
I’ll watch the young girls dancing
While the mariachis play
Spanish songs on their guitars
I might even fall in love
With a dark-haired Madonna
Underneath those silver stars
I’m gonna let mañana
Take care of itself
And play all the cards dealt to me
I’ll wake up smilin’
No matter where I go
Somewhere south in Mexico
Life has a way of gettin’ me down
And spinnin’ my head all around
I’ve got to follow this dream I’ve found
Somewhere south in Mexico
I’ll sail on easy water
Underneath the lazy sun
And throw my troubles to the wind
I’ll lay in the sand
Where no-one’s around
And watch the waves roll in
I’ve untied those strings of city life
That held me there
And now I’ll do what I please
I’m gonna get away
As far as I can go
Somewhere south in Mexico
I’m sippin’ on a Lone Star
Headin’ south alone
Leavin’ all my broken dreams behind
Gonna sun-bake my body
On a beach near Acapulco
And let that tequila wash my mind
I’m givin’ up the fast life
Gonna slow it down
And drift along with the flow
I’ll let the good times
Show me where to go
Somewhere south in Mexico
I’ll watch the young girls dancin’
While the mariachis play
Spanish songs on their guitars
I might even fall in love
With a dark-haired Madonna
Underneath those silver stars
I’m gonna let mañana
Take care of itself
And play all the cards dealt to me
I’ll wake up smilin’
No matter where I go
Somewhere south in Mexico
Life has a way of gettin’ me down
And spinnin’ my head all around
I’ve got to follow this dream I’ve found
Somewhere south in Mexico
I’ll sail on easy water
Underneath the lazy sun
And throw my troubles to the wind
I’ll lay in the sand
Where no-one’s around
And watch the waves roll in
I’ve untied those strings of city life
That held me there
And now I’ll do what I please
I’m gonna get away
As far as I can go
Somewhere south in Mexico
I’m gonna get away
As far as I can go
Somewhere south in Mexico
Goin’ down to Mexico
