I woke up to a bright summer morning
With the Mexican law on my trail
I'd been running for four days and nights
Shot a man who worked at the rail
At the rail
And I know I can't leave you
Mexico, I just can't say goodbye
And I know I can't leave you
Mexico, I just can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
They want to take me back for the trial
Let by the point of a gun
Gotta hang for killing that man
But it was a fair show-down in the sun in the sun
And I know I can't leave you
Mexico, I just can't say goodbye
And I know I can't leave you
Mexico, I just can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
And I know I can't leave you
Mexico, I just can't say goodbye
And I know I can't leave you
Mexico, I just can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
Mexico, I just can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye
