Текст песни Billy Joe Shaver - Ain't No God in Mexico
[Verse 1]
Down the road a ways
I've heard say a new day's comin' on
Where the woman folks are friendly
And the law leaves you alone
I'll believe it when I see it
AndI haven't seen it yet
Don't mind me just keep on talkin'
I am just looking for my hat
[Chorus]
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'd never seen the sunshine
Hell, I would not curse the rain
If my feet would fit a railroad track
I guess I'd a-been a train
[Verse 2]
Me and Louise Higginbotham
Use to chase across the yard
Back in 1947
That's when more than times was hard
Pity me I didn't find the line
In time and like a fool
In front of God and everybody
I politely blew my cool
[Chorus]
Ain't no god in Mexico
Ain't no comfort in the can
When you're down in Matamoros
Gettin' busted by the man
If I'd not seen the sunshine
Hell, I would not curse the rain
If my feet would fit a railroad track
I guess I'd a-been a train
