Went down to Mexico, I drove my black El Camino I met up with an old gringo He showed me round, and said to call him Joe. I was there about a week or so, Wound up in the general hospital, Joe said don't drink the water no more, How the hell was I supposed to know? Drove up to San Diego I saw a sign for Mission Beach And so, went out deep into the ocean, Saw a shark and had a stroke. Back in the ambulance I go, I had a dream about a girl I used to know, She said "I got to warn ya 'bout Mexico and California." Earthquakes and sharks to start us off, If Chupacabras ain't enough, Black widow spiders and k**er bees, There ain't no shade, there ain't no trees. Hot desert heat, polluted air, And traffic jams beyond compare. That's all I got to warn ya 'bout Mexico and California. Woke up and said I got to go, Doc said "Relax, just take it slow." I tried to argue, but don't you know, Bout California and Mexico? Right then, the doctor hit the floor, The building shook, then shook some more, And I looked down at him and swore, "You son of a b**h! I told you so!" Earthquakes and sharks to start us off, If Chupacabras ain't enough, Black widow spiders and k**er bees, There ain't no shade, there ain't no trees. Hot desert heat, polluted air, And traffic jams beyond compare. That's all I got to warn ya 'bout Mexico and California. [x3]
