Life in the city is awful
The people the traffic the crime
On the highways they’re rude.
In the subways they’re crude.
And at night on the streets they are slime.
I’m sitting here with my Fritos and beer
And bean dip that’s fresh from the can
When this twelve pack is done
Think I’ll move to the sun
And the tropical Mexican sand
(Chorus)
I think I’ll move to Tijuana
‘cause I’ve heard that Mexico’s nice
Say goodbye to all my problems
For a wonderful Mexican life
My girlfriend’s always nagging
‘cause I’m out in the bars late at night
Well I know she’ll fell bad
And I’ll tell her I’m glad
When I find me a Mexican wife.
(Chorus)
Well I’ve learned to speak some Spanish
In the Mexican part of this town
So talking will be no problem
‘cause I’ve got this language down
quantos para un taco
donde este el bano
como se llama
lava sus manos
Work in this city is awful
I tried it in ’93.
And if I had a job I’d quit it right now
And run away happy and free,
(Chorus)
