Mexico Lyrics

Seamus Fogarty Mexico

I worked on a job for a real big man
His daddy set him up with a  ---
He arrived later on to the building site
Oh yeah he was looking for trouble alright

First thing he said was "I don't hire you so you could smoke
"'cause of f..ckers like you that I'm nearly broke"
Well I looked at the day's work that I had done
And I exploded like a nail gun

I said "thank you
"But I've got to go
"I gotta catch the train to Mexico"
I said "thank you very much
"But I've got to go
"I gotta catch the train to Mexico"
I said "thank you very much
"But I've got to go
"I gotta catch the train to Mexico"
I said "thank you very much
"But I've got to go
"I gotta catch the train to Mexico"

Mmm

And all lives are defined by uncertainty
And I'll settle down when I'm old and grey
And I burn through bridges like their cigarette
Keep my head down, no time for no regrets

Ohh

Swear days are rolling down the poor boy's head
Grey hairs never grew, their roots were dead
And I'll be building bridges, watch them fall away
Keep my head down, I'm blinded by today

Ahh
