South of the border, hey, I know a lad,
He's got more fun than anybody's had, Don't got no worry, don't got no dough, Everybody's wondering 'bout Mexican Joe. In old Mexico, they call him the Rhumba King, Leads all the women around on a string, When they go out, they get a million thrills, But the lovely senoritas wind up with the bills. Dancin', romancin', Always on the go, Sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe He makes the night spots all along the bay, People want to see him when he comes their way, He spreads so much joy everywhere he goes, Everyone shouts "Viva la Mexican Joe." He likes to gamble, at poker he's an ace, He's always lucky with the cards that got a face, At winning the money, he is sure a whiz, But when they win they don't collect 'cause they don't know where he is. Dancin', romancin', Always on the go, Sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe He don't no income tax 'cause he don't got no dough, Still he gets along just fine, how we'll never know, He's got everything he wants, a girl, a drink, a song, If we use his formula, we surely can't go wrong. His favorite playground is anywhere there's girls, He's got that somethin' that sets their hearts a-whirl, It couldn't be his money 'cause he ain't got a peso, But when he wants a kiss all he's got to do is say so Dancin', romancin', Always on the go, Sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe |

Chorus
Railroad, Steamboat, River and Canal Younder comes A sucker and he's got my gal And she's gone,gone,gone And she's gone,gone,gone And I bid her my last fairwell. I fell in love with A pritty little thing I thought that wedding bells would ring She was sweat as sweat could be Til I found out what she did to me Chours I ask her mother to let her go She wisperd mother please tell him, no! Tho' he may think that I am true There are plenty more, who'll think so too. Chours Now I won't cry my life away Some other sucker will have to pay And when he finds that she is gone I guess I'll hear him sing this song Chorus |

I've lived a lot in my time (I've lived a lot in my time)
I once had a mansion and lived in my glory But now I'm down to my last dime; I had a sweetheart, but I was unfaithful Oh, I've lived a lot in my time.. Chorus: I've fought the grim reaper down in the dark valley I've prayed when the sun would'nt shine; I've looked through the bars of a cold lonely prison Oh, I've lived a lot in my time. --- Instrumental --- I've been a soldier, and I've been a rambler Once thought that everything was fine; I've hoed in the corn fields, I've picked in the cotton Yes, I've lived a lot in my time. I've walked with my master, down in the dark valley And wonderful peace I did find; Someday I'll journey to Eden's green pastures Yes, I've lived a lot in my time... |

Out where the bright lights are glowing
You're drawn like a moth to a flame You laugh while the wine's overflowing While I sit and whisper your name Four walls to hear me Four walls to see Four walls too near me Closing in on me Sometimes I ask why I'm waiting But my walls have nothing to say I'm made for love not for hating So here where you left me I'll stay One night with you is like heaven And so while I'm walking the floor I listen for steps in the hallway And wait for your knock on my door. |

HOME (Jim Reeves)
Written by Roger Miller Well, I've been a traveler most of my life Never took a home, never took a wife Ran away young and decided to roam Wanna see my mama and my daddy back home CHORUS: Home, where the river runs cold The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold Home, where the trees grow tall The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call I remember stories that my daddy used to tell My eyes would get big, and his chest would swell I could sit for hours and listen with glee As he'd tell of how he lived when he's a boy like me REPEAT CHORUS Well, mama dear, mama do you still love your boy After all my roamin' can I still bring you joy Mom sent a letter, got it not long ago She said "come home, I'm missin' you so |

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Lets pretend we're together all alone I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low And you can tell your friend there with you he'll have to go Whisper to me tell me do you love me true Or is he holding you the way I do Though love is blind make up your mind I've got to know Should I hang up or will you tell him he'll have to go You cant say the words I want to hear While you're with another man Do you you want me answer yes or no Darling I will understand Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone Lets pretend that we're together all alone I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low And you can tell your friend there with you He'll have to go |

If you ever change your mind
And you find that you still care It won't be to hard to find me Look behind you I'll be there. When your bright light starts to dim And your thought return to me If you're really through with him, dear Look behind you there I'll be. Like a story with no ending Like a song that's never through There's no use in my pretending I'm lost without you. If you ever change your mind And you find that you still care It won't be too hard to find me Look behind you I'll be there. --- Instrumental --- Like a story with no ending Like a song that's never through There's no use in my pretending I'm lost without you. If you ever change your mind And you find that you still care It won't be too hard to find me Look behind you I'll be there... |

Stand at your window some night
Again let me see The one who is holding The best part of me Stand at your window some night Look at my side of town Remember if you change your mind You know where I'll be found Each night I look up at your mansion I can see the window where the light shines through I wonder if you still remember The one that you left for someone new Stand at your window some night Again let me see The one who is holding The best part of me Stand at your window some night Look at my side of town Remember if you change your mind You know where I'll be found Each night as I wait here in the darkness I watch your window so high above I'm longing for a look at my old sweetheart Just a glimpse of the one that I still love Stand at your window some night Again let me see The one who is holding The best part of me Stand at your window some night Look at my side of town Remember if you change your mind You know where I'll be found |

I heard the pitter patter
Of a slow winter rain I heard the lonesome whistle Of a far away train. As I sat in the silence Broken only by a train I heard a heartbreak last night. Oh, how you cried When we said goodbye As we stood at The station in the rain And a whisper was saying From a pine tree close by When we heard The whistle of your train. I heard the moans of sobbing Of the wind in the sign I felt the cold icy finger Of fear from the spine. For I knew in my heart You'd never be mine And I heard a heartbreak last night. For I knew in my heart You'd never be mine And I heard a heartbreak last night... |

I guess I'm crazy for loving you
You tell me many ways that I won't do. My heart keeps sayin' that I'm a fool I guess I'm crazy for loving you. I don't dare let you go it's unfair this I know I don't care if it's so, it has to be My heart keeps sayin' that I'm a fool I guess I'm crazy for loving you. I don't dare let you go it's unfair this I know I don't care if it's so, it has to be My heart keeps sayin' that I'm a fool I guess I'm crazy for loving you... |

I hear the sound of distant drums
Far away, far away And if they call for me to come Then I must go and you must stay So Mary marry me, let's not wait Let's share all the time we can before it's too late Love me now for now is all the time there may be If you love me Mary, Mary marry me I hear the sound of bugles blow Far away, far away And if they call, then I must go Across the sea, so wild and grey. So Mary marry me, let's not wait For the distant drums might change our wedding date And love me now, for now is all the time there may be If you love me Mary, Mary marry me |
