Lyrics
Mexico Sundown Blues
Mexico Girl, Mexico Boy
What am I supposed to do now?
I've been on my own and I've been with my friends
but still I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Mexico Boy, Mexico Girl
What am I supposed to do now?
I've got those Mexico sundown blues
I've got those Mexico sundown blues
I've been on my own and I've been with my friends
still I don't know what I'm supposed to do
I've got those Mexico sundown blues
I've been underground
Voices all around
Mexico
Don't make no sound
No make no sound
Don't make no sound
I've got those Mexico sundown blues
Mexico don't make no sound
don't make no sound
Life is underground
Poison's all around
Mexico
Don't make no sound
Mexico
