What Am I Doing Hanging Around 3:08 Lyrics - Buckaroo Blue Grass - Michael Martin Murphey

Just a loud mouth Yankee, I went down to Mexico 

I didn't have much time to spend, about a week or so 

I lightly took advantage there of a girl who loved me so 

I found myself a-thinkin' when my time had come to go 

What am I doin' hangin' 'round? 

I should be on that train and gone 

I should be ridin' on that train to San Antone 

What am I doin' hangin' 'round? 

She took me to the garden just for a little walk 

I didn't know much Spanish and there was no time for talk 

She told me that she loved me not with words but with a kiss 

I found myself a-thinkin' of some ol' train I could not miss 

What am I doin' hangin' 'round? 

I should be on that train and gone 

I should be ridin' on that train to San Antone 

What am I doin' hangin' 'round? 

It's been a year or so and I want to go back again 

And if I had the money, I'd ride the same old train 

But I guess your chances come but once and I sure have missed mine 

Until I find myself a-thinkin' when I hear some whistle cryin' 

What am I doin' hangin' 'round? 

I should be on that train and gone 

I should be ridin' on that train to Mexico 

What am I doin' hangin' 'round?
