Long Way to Mexico Songtext

von Roger Creager

Roger Creager, Radney Foster



There's a warm breeze blowing from the South
So I need to get going.
The palm trees and the beaches call my name.
There's a bar that I know well there.
You can drink and breathe in the sea air,
Lay in the sun and dance in the rain.
The kind of place where everyone knows your name.

[Chorus]
I've got music on the stereo,
Bluebonnets on the passing road.
It's a long way to Mexico, but I'm going there tonight.
Line the Margaritas up.
I'm doing 90 in my pick-up truck.
It's a long way to Mexico.

I know about this out-of-the-way place.
You can disappear without a trace.
Leave the world behind if only for a while.
You could just get rolling see the winding road
Unfolding feeling better with every passing mile.
Even the getting there makes me smile.

[Chorus: .]

[Bridge]
It's a place of Senoritas and where Mariachis sing.
I know happiness abounds there.
It's a place where I'll soon be.

[Chorus]
