Down the road a ways I have heard say a new day's comin' on
Where the woman folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone
Well I'll believe it when I see it but I haven't seen it yet
Don't mind me just keep on talkin' I am just looking for my hat
Ain't no god in mexico
Ain't no way to understand
How that border crossing feeling makes a fool out of a man
If I had not seen the sunshine hell I would not cuss your rain
My feet would fit a railroad track
I would made one hell of a train
Me and louise higginbotham use to race across the yard
Back in 1947 that's when more than times were hard
Well pity me I didn't see the line in time and like a fool
In front of god and everybody I politely blew my cool
Ain't no god in mexico ain't no comfort in the can
When your down in matamoras gettin' busted by the man
If I had not seen the sunshine I would not cuss your rain
If my feet would fit a railroad track I guess I would have been a train
