Down In Mexico - The Coasters
Down in Mexicali
There's a crazy little place that I know
Where the drinks are hotter than the chili sauce
And the boss is a cat named Joe
He wears a red bandanna,
plays a blues piano
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash
and a black mustache
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
Well, the first time that I saw him
He was sittin' on a piano stool
I said "Tell me, dad,
when does the fun begin?"
He just winked his eye
and said, "Man, be cool"
He wears a red bandanna,
plays a blues piano
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash
and a black mustache
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
In Mexico
All of a sudden in walks this chick
In Mexico
Joe starts playing on a Latin kick
In Mexico
Around her waist she wore three fishnets
In Mexico
She started dancin' with the castanets
In Mexico
I didn't know just what to expect
In Mexico
She threw her arms around my neck
In Mexico
We started dancin' all around the floor
And then she did a dance I never saw before
So if you're south of the border
I mean down in the Mexico
And you wanna get straight, man,
don't hesitate
Just look up a cat named Joe
He wears a red bandanna,
plays a blues piano
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash,
and a black mustache
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
Yeah, como est usted senorita
Come with me to the border
South of the border, that is
Come with me, baby, come with me
