Run For The Border

In the style of

Johnny Rodriguez

Lyrics

a hundred dollars
over the border
a thousand miles
out of my mind
oh what was i thinkin'
thinkin' i could drink
all that mexican wine

and who in the world
is this woman
i've never
seen her before

but i've got a feelin'
that she's got
a husband
someone just
kicked down the door

better run
for the border
he's never gonna
understand
better find
a place to hide
on the other side
of the rio grande

jose's tall
dark and handsome
she said
as she reached
for her clothes

but he's
mean as a snake
when his woman
you take
right from
under his nose

i said
this is a great time
to tell me
she said
i thought
he was in jail

well i'm jose's wife
jose's got a knife
and jose is hot
on your trail

better run
for the border
jose
he's a dangerous man
better find
a place to hide
on the other side
of the rio grande

so i ran through
the streets of laredo
naked as
the day i was born

people were starin'
and clappin'
and laughin' and
honkin' their horns

as i passed the church
on the corner
i thought about
stoppin' to pray

then a voice
from the blue said
i'll watch over you but
we'd better
stay ahead of jose

better run
for the border
jose
he's a dangerous man
better find
a place to hide
on the other side
of the rio grande

better run
for the border
jose will never
understand
better find
a place to hide
on the other side
of the rio grande

better run
for the border
jose
he is a dangerous man
better find
a place to hide
on the other side
of the rio grande
