Way down here you need a reason to move
Feel a fool running your stateside games
Lose your load, leave your mind behind, Baby James
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so simple I just got to go
The sun’s so hot I forgot to go home
Guess I’ll have to go now
Americano got the sleepy eye
But his body’s still shaking like a live wire
Sleepy señorita with the eyes on fire
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so sweet with the sun sinking low
Moon’s so bright like to light up the night
Make everything all right
Baby’s hungry and the money’s all gone
The folks back home don’t want to talk on the phone
She gets a long letter, sends back a postcard; times are hard
Oh, down in Mexico
I never really been so I don’t really know
Oh, Mexico
I guess I’ll have to go
Oh, Mexico
I never really been but I’d sure like to go
Oh, Mexico
I guess I’ll have to go now
We're on the road and headed south of the border. We're staying at the LAX Hilton tonight (free, thankyewverymuch, thanks to all the frequent flier points I socked away when I was traveling for work) so we won't have to fight rush hour traffic in the morning to make our 7:45 a.m. flight tomorrow. We'll be soaking up the sun in Mazatlan 15 hours from now with nothing on our agenda for the next 10 days but sleeping, snorkeling and siestas.
And now... As a courtesy to my spammer friends -- because I don't want them to waste their time trying to waste my time by spamming my comments with stuff I won't be here to delete -- I'm closing the comments here and at Beth's blog until we get back next Monday.
¡Adios, amigos, estamos el vacaciones!
