Down the road a ways i've heard said a new day's coming on
Where the women folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone I'll believe it when i see it and i haven't seen it yet
Don't mind me just keep on talking i'm just looking for my hat
Chorus 1:
There ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no way to understand
How that border crossing feeling makes a fool out of a man If i'd never felt the sunshine then i would not curse the rain If my feet could fit a railroad track,i guess i'd been a train
Me and Louise Higgins-Botham used to chase across the yard
Back in 1947 that's when more than times were hard
Well pity me i didn't find the line in time like a fool In front of God and everybody i politely blew my cool
Chorus 2:
Ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no comfort in the king
When you're down in
Madamoris getting busted by the man If i'd never felt the sunshine
Hell i would not curse the rain If i hadn't been railroaded well i guess i'd been a train
