[Verse 1]
C F C I was hangin' 'round in Brooklyn town with a settle-down type girl G7 Her daddy was a diplomat who thought he ruled the world C F Fm And he was well-connected, he helped me connect the dots C Am G C He paid me off to leave, and let's just say he paid a lot
[Chorus]
C Am F I guess it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me C G7 Laid up in the shade of a coconut tree C F Fm And love said, "Go to hell," but there's somewhere I'd rather be C F G C So it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me
[Verse 2]
C F C So I took her daddy's money, but I stopped in Vegas first G7 I met a dancer on the strip and fell in love with her C F We almost tied the knot when Elvis asked, "Any objections?" C G C Her mobster boyfriend busted in with an AK-47
[Chorus]
C Am F Guess it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me C G7 Laid up in the shade of a coconut tree C F Fm And love said, "Go to hell," but there's somewhere I'd rather be C F G C So it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me

[Bridge]
C F C I made it south of El Paso, met a businesswoman there G I knew that she was rich, but how, I didn't care C F Fm When the cops kicked in the door, they found a suitcase of cocaine C Am G C She took off with the Federales, and I took all the blame
[Chorus]
C Am F I guess it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me C G From this jail cell, I can't see one coconut tree C F Fm And love said, "Go to hell," and now I can't ever leave C F G C So it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me
[Outro]
F G C So it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me
