Toby Keith - Stays In Mexico
His name was Steve,
Her name was Geena. (You've never been here before
have you?)
They met at a bar called the Cabo Wabo Cantina.
He was an Eastern salesman from South Dakota.
She was a first grade school teacher, Pheonix,
Arizona. (No, this is my first time here.)
They started dancin' and it got real hot,
Then it spilled over to the parking lot.
One more Tequila, they were fallin' in love.
One more's never enough.
Don't bite off more than you can chew.
There's things down here the devil himself wouldn't
do.
Just remember when you let it all go,
What happens in Mexico, stays in Mexico.
He woke up in the mornin' and he made a little
tellephone call,
To check on his wife an' his kids back at home in
Souix Falls.
She hopped right in the shower with a heavy, heavy
mind. (What am I doing?)
He knew it was the first time Geena'd ever crossed
that line.
They walked down to the beach and started drinking
again.
Jumped into the ocean for a dirty swim.
One more Margharita, they were fallin' in love.
Yeah, one more's never enough.
Don't bite off more than you can chew.
There's things down here the devil himself wouldn't
do.
Just remember when you let it all go,
What happens in Mexico, stays in Mexico.
Instrumental break.
Oh, Mexico.
Waiting at the bar at the terminal gate,
She says: "Steve, I gotta go: I'm going to miss my
plane."
He said: "One more Tequila 'fore you climb on up."
She said: "One more's never enough."
Don't bite off more than you can chew.
There's things down here the devil himself wouldn't
do.
Just remember when you let it all go,
What happens in Mexico, stays in Mexico.
Stays in Mexico.
Stays in Mexico.
Stays in Mexico.
Oh, Mexico.
