|
Leaving town while I still can |
|
Going down to the Yucatan |
|
And become a wanted man |
|
It happens that fast |
|
Saying my goodbyes |
|
Now mama don't you go and cry |
|
I've got to try and live without a past |
|
Shined my shoes dressed the soles |
|
Only cost five pesos |
|
At this rate the money goes |
|
Twice as far |
|
Attencion, Senor |
|
Mas cerveza por favor |
|
A rolling stone gathers his thoughts |
|
In a Mexican bar |
|
I admit all I know |
|
Is the little that he told |
|
But between you and me it's best |
|
Between the lines |
|
Although I swear I heard him say |
|
There'd been a fiancee |
|
Convicted of his love |
|
If not his crime |
|
We are condemned by our own hand |
|
A fugitive will understand |
|
So forget everything you can |
|
What's in a name? |
|
But sure as the Word made flesh |
|
The soul will confess |
|
And this cup passes before us all the same |
