NorthStar' Country

THE SEASHORES OF OLD MEXICO
I left out of Tucson

With no destination

In mind
I was runnin'

From trouble

And the jail term
The Judge had in mind
And the border meant freedom

A new life romance
And that's why

lthought I should go
And start my life over

On the seashores
Of old Mexico
My first night in Juarez

I lost all the money I had
One bad senorita

Made use of one innocent lad
But I must keep on runnin'

lfs too late to turn back
I'm wanted in Tucson

I'm told
Yeah an' things'll blow over

On the seashores of old Mexico
Two Mexican fanners en route

To a town I can't say

Let me ride on the back
Of a flatbed half loaded with hay
Down through Durango

Colima Almiera

Then into Manzanillos
Where I slept

In the sunshine

On the seashores
Of old Mexico
After one long siesta

I came wide awake in the night

I was startled by someone

Who shadowed the pale moonlight
My new found companion

One young senorita
Who offered

A broken hello
To the gringo

She found
On the seashores
Of old Mexico
She spoke of Sonora and

Swore that she'd never return
For her Mexican husband

She really had no great concern
'Cause she loved a gringo

My red hair and lingo
Thafs all

I needed to know
Yeah I found
What I needed

On the seashores
Of old Mexico
Yeah she loved a gringo

My red hair and lingo
Thafs all

I needed to know ha ha
Yeah I found
What I needed

On the seashores
Of old Mexico
