Down In Mexico

Intro: Am  E

Am            C
Down in Mexicali
Am                                    C
There's a crazy little place that I know
Am                                         C
Where the drinks are hotter than the chili sauce
E                            E7
And the boss is a cat named Joe

Am                                      C
He wears a red bandana, plays a cool pianna
Dm                         Am
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
Am                                      E
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
Dm                          Am
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico

Am                               C
Well, the first time that I saw him
Am                           C
He was sittin' on a piano stool
Am                                       C
I said "Tell me dad, when does the fun begin?"
E                                         E7
He just winked his eye and said "Man, be cool."

Am                                      C
He wears a red bandana, plays a cool pianna
Dm                         Am
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
Am                                     E
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
Dm                         Am
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico

She threw her arms around my neck

We started dancin' all around the floor
G

And then she did a dance I never saw before.

Am                          C
So if you're south of the border
Am                C

Am
And you wanna get straight,
C
Man, don't hesitate
E                         E7
Just look up a cat named Joe.

Am                                      C
He wears a red bandana, plays a cool pianna
Dm                         Am
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
Am                                     E
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
