Bobby Bare - Down In Mexico lyrics

I'm down in Mexico, had to go, Won't be home no more I want mom and dad to know I miss and love them so Though I'll never see them anymore. The day that I turned twenty one I could hardly wait To say goodbye to mom and dad and shake the hand of fate Fate was with me from the start, until that fateful day A big man he took my sweetheart and I took his life away. Now I'm down in Mexico, had to go, Won't be home no more I want mom and dad to know I miss and love them so Though I'll never see them anymore. I stood and watched the man as he fell And then I heard the policemen's whistle blow And when I thought about that prison cell I thought about old Mexico. Now I'm down in Mexico, had to go, Won't be home no more I want mom and dad to know I miss and love them so Though I'll never see them anymore...
