Lyrics
MEXICAN LADY WORDS AND MUSIC ©AL KERR2011
VERSE 1 127BPM
I REMEMBER THE DAY I WORKED ACROSS THE BORDER
I'D SAID GOODBYE TO MY WOMAN AND TOLD HER I LOVED HER
BUT AFTER A FEW DRINKS THAT NIGHT
I KISSED A GIRL IN THE MOONLIGHT
I HELD HER AWHILE
THEN I WHISPERED THOSE WORDS IN HER EAR
CHORUS
MEXICAN LADY DONT TRY TO DISTRACT ME
WITH EYES THAT ATTRACT
IN THE SOFT SUMMER LIGHT
NO SENORITA
NOT ONE MORE TEQUILA
I HAVE TO GO HOME
TO MY FAMILY TONIGHT
VERSE 2
SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL IN LACE
THAT SPANISH ANGEL
AS SHE DRIFTED ACROSS THE ROOM
AND SAT DOWN AT MY TABLE
TEMPTATION WAS THERE ON MY FACE
I JUST HAD TO GET OUT OF THAT PLACE
BEFORE I LEFT I WHISPERED
THE WORDS ONE MORE TIME
CHORUS
BREAK TURNAROUND
VERSE 3
SOMETIMES I THINK OF THE DAY
I CROSSED THE BORDER
OF HOW I HAD LEFT MY WOMAN
AND TOLD HER I LOVED HER
OF HE GIRL I MET THAT NIGHT
AS WE DANCED IN THE MOONLIGHT
BUT THEN I REMEMBER THOSE
WHISPERED WORDS ONE MORE TIME
CHORUS TWICE
YES I HAVE TO GO HOME TO MY WOMAN TONIGHT
YES I HAVE TO GO HOME TO MY FAMILY TONIGHT
