Jürgen Drews, Otto Waalkes - Mexico songtext (lyrics)

Mexico, Mexico mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico (Whoa) mexico, Mexico

In 1840 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Packard and
Down the Mississipp‘
We took a little bacon and
We took a little beans
And we went in for the British
In the town of New Orleans

We fired our guns and
Thee British kept acomin‘
There wasn‘t as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and
Then we started running
All down the Mississippi to
The Gulf of Mexico mexico (Whoa)
Mexico, Mexico

Well, pack and them said we
Could take 'em by suprise
So we didn't fire a musket till
We looked 'em in the eyes
We held our fire till we saw their faces well
Then we opened up our muskets
And really gave 'em hell

We fired our guns and the
British kept a comin'
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and
Then we started running
All down the Mississippi to
The Gulf of Mexico

Mexico (Whoa) mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico (Whoa)
Mexico, Mexico (Everybody sing)

Mexico (Whoa) mexico (Whoa)
Mexico (Whoa) said Me-x-i-c-o
Mexico, Mexico (Whoa) mexico, Mexico

Now we get down fine till
We see the British come
There must‘ve been a hundred of
‘em beatin‘ on a drum
We held our breath as we powdered up the gun
Then we sat around in circles and
Just waited for the fun

We fired our guns and the
British kept a comin‘
There wasn‘t as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and
Then we started running
All down the Mississippi to
The Gulf of Mexico mexico (Whoa)
Mexico, Mexico

Well they ran to the briar and
They ran to the bramble
And they ran to the bushes
Where the rabbit's couldn‘t go
They run so fast, till hounds
They couldn‘t get‘em
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico

We fired our guns and the
British kept a comin‘
There wasn‘t as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and
Then we started running
All down the Mississippi to
The Gulf of Mexico

We fired our guns and the
British kept a comin‘
There wasn‘t as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and
Then we started running
All down the Mississippi to
The Gulf of Mexico

We fired our guns and the
British kept a comin‘
There wasn‘t as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and
Then we started running
All down the Mississippi to
The Gulf of Mexico

Mexico, Mexico (Whoa) mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico (Whoa) mexico, Mexico
We fired our guns and the
British kept a comin‘
There wasn‘t as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and
Then we started running
All down the Mississippi to
The Gulf of Mexico
