INTRO

VERSE 1

Some of them are running from lovers

A few of them hidin? from the law

A lot of them had some bad memories

But most of them are running from it all

They come to drink Margaritas

Color their backs and bellies with the sun

Worn out and worn down Americans

With nowhere left to run

CHORUS 1

Hackers and actors and girls of the night

Doctors and lawyers and thieves

Seen enough grinnin? and done enough sinnin?

Forgot what they really believe

They?re through makin? choices

About what?s wrong or what?s right

They?re Mexico Passport Packers

And all they?re gonna do is have a good time

LEAD (over verse)

VERSE 2

They sit and watch the sunsets on the water

And talk about what they recall

Before they squandered or wandered or gave it all back

So they could have it all

And when the moonlight dances on the barroom

And their glasses fill Tequila & Rum

No one ever guesses or has any stresses

About why they?ve really come

CHORUS 2

Hackers and actors and girls of the night

Doctors and lawyers and thieves

Seen enough grinnin? and done enough sinnin?

Forgot what they really believe

They?re through makin? choices

About what?s wrong or what?s right

They?re Mexico Passport Packers

And all they?re gonna do is have a good time

TAG

They?re Mexico Passport Packers

And all they?re gonna do?(hold & break on B)?is have a good

OUTRO time
