WAYLON JENNINGS - AIN'T NO GOD IN MEXICO lyrics

rate me

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

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 hell I would not curse the rain

If my feet could fit a railroad track I guess I'd been a train

[ ac.guitar ]

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

Ain't no God in Mexico ain't no comfort in the kin

When you're down in Madamoris gettin' 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

[ ac.guitar ]
