Lyrics:
I've got a bad disease
But from my brain is where I bleed
Insanity it seems
Has got me by my soul to squeeze
Well all the love from thee
With
If I could have chosen where God would hide his heaven
I'd wish for it to be the salt and swell of the ocean
Carried by the currents to all
friends or off by ourselves
Drivin' around, yard sale to yard sale
Droppin' by the county fair, winnin' you a bear, poppin' balloons
If you're lookin' for
In 1974, I went to Mexico to visit my brother who was working as an anthropologist with Tsutsil Indians, the last surviving Mayan tribe.

nd west Texas highway transients
t dawn, he begins to feel the first nearly imperceptible
Two men rode in from the south, a rainy autumn night
The Sky above and the mud below
They walked into the Deacon's bar, they were Mexican by sight
It's the same kind of story
That seems to come down from long ago
Two friends having coffee together
When something flies by their window

Not every day the bitch see a million dollar nigga (well damn)
Hired killers with me now, I can't be a victim (pow, pow)
Choppa close by
I met a girl in Laredo down in Mexico
While I was makin' the rounds
Down in a dim cafe she does the swing and sway
That's the talk of the town

the memory is ringin'
One more ride
One more ride
As the years go by I wonder why I long to leave my home
And to hit the trail of the iron rail away
[Chorus]
Anywhere you want to go
As long as its sunny weather
Let the time fly by I don't mind
As long as we're together
South of the border there's
I'll sing you a true song of Billy the Kid
I'll sing of some desperate deeds that he did
'Way out in New Mexico long long ago
When a man's only
Yonder comes Miss Rosie, how in the world do you know?
Well, I know her by the apron and the dress she wore
Umbrella on her shoulder, piece
hide from you at all
[Chorus]
Tennessee, you don't make the whiskey
California, you don't make the wine
And Mexico, you don't make tequila
Strong
of our Mexico.
Chorus:
Oh, Adelita, promise you'll remember the happy hours that now have long gone by.
Oh, Adelita, we'll share these tender moments.
I'll sing you a true song of Billy the Kid,
I'll sing of the desperate deeds that he did,
Way out in New Mexico, long long ago
When a man's only
When I get off of this mountain, you know where I want to go?
Straight down the Mississippi river, to the Gulf of Mexico
To Lake Charles,
You can't live by bread alone, you won't be satisfied
You can't roll away the stone if your hands are tied.
Got to start someplace, baby, can you

I bet Vegas and they took my clothes.
I bet Monte Carlo I was showin' my stuff,

The one she bought in Mexico
It blocked the wind, it stopped the rain
She'd never leave that one
So she can't be
The meaning of the life has been lost in the wind
And some people thinkin' that the end is close by
