Mexican Divorce

Down below El Paso lies Juarez
Mexico is different like the travel folder says
Cross the Rio Grand and you will find
An old adobe house where you leave your past behind
One day married next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time at all to get
A mexican divorce
As I came home to this empty house last night
Looked out all the windows
And I couldn't find one light
Found you on this road to Mexico
And now my love I'm pleading
Please, oh please, don't go
One day married next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time at all to get
A mexican divorce
Finding love takes so long
Walking out must be wrong
It's a sin for you to get
A mexican divorce
One day married next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time at all to get
A mexican divorce
