Alan Shacklock - The Mexican Lyrics

Chico Fernandez
Sleepin' on his gun
Dreams of Santa Anna
Fighting in the sun

Drums so loud from both sides
Makes it hard to dream
Ah, bruises fallin' hard and fast
Makes it all seem real

Mornin', come mornin'
A Chico gotta have his share
Mornin', sad mornin'
Said he must be there

Mornin', sad mornin'
Well, I laughed, and I cried
And I cry-cry-cry-cry–cried

Mornin', sad mornin'
Mexican

Señorita's pining –
"Chico, come on home
Santa Anna's losing
You'll be first to go"
"Sam Houston's laughing
Davy Crockett too
When Anna takes the Alamo
The first to go is you"

Mornin', come mornin'
A Chico gotta have his share
Mornin', sad mornin'
Heaven will be there

Mornin', sad mornin'
Well, I laughed, and I laughed
Ha-ha-ha-ha–ha
