                                        D 
Thought I'd take a trip down to the old world 
         G                                              D 
'Cause I heard a lot of things about the North American girls 
                    Em 
I was looking for a lady 
                   D      C G   C D   C G 
Someone to have my baby 


                                 D 
So I got me on a 747 Pan America plane 
  G                                     D 
I sat me down next to your all American dame 
                                              Em 
Said, 'I'm going up North', she said, 'It's a pity' 
                                                   D       
Then she told me all about the gold down in Mexico City 



G Ah, she said Lordy, Lordy, watch the blue smoke flying D Every morning and every night to get you out of your head (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) G Oh, man oh, Lordy, Lordy needs a natural high D When you're living down south and it's going right out of your head (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy)
G D Got off the plane, went to the customs and they gave me a list G D Do you carry a gun, take drugs, or are you Communist? Em They said my papers were in order D I wasn't staying long, no sir, I'm going South across the border
G Ah, she said Lordy, Lordy, watch the blue smoke flying D Every morning and every night to get you out of your head (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) G Oh, man oh, Lordy, Lordy needs a natural high D When you're living down south and it's going right out of your head (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy)
Instrumental: G C D C G C D C G C D C G D Took the first South bound across the Rio and down G D Found a little place in a small Mexico town Em Just me and my lady D Now she's having my baby
G Ah, she said Lordy, Lordy, watch the blue smoke flying D Every morning and every night to get you out of your head (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) G Oh, man oh, Lordy, Lordy needs a natural high D When you're living down south and it's going right out of your head (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy)
G Ah, she said Lordy, Lordy, watch the blue smoke flying D Every morning and every night to get you out of your head (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) G Oh, man oh, Lordy, Lordy needs a natural high D When you're living down south and it's going right out of your head (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy) (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy)
