Ain't No God In Mexico Lyrics - Singles - Waylon Jennings

(Billy Joe Shaver) 

Down the road a ways I've heard said 

A new day's coming on 

Where the women folks are friendly 

And the law leaves you alone. 

I'll believe it when I see it 

And I haven't seen it yet 

Don't mind me just keep on talking 

I'm just looking for my hat. 

There 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 felt the sunshine 

Hell, I would not curse the rain 

If my feet could fit a railroad track 

I guess I'd been a train.

Me and Louise Higgins Botham 

Used to chase across the yard 

Back in 1947 that's when 

More than times were hard. 

Well, pity me I didn't find 

The line in time like a fool 

In front of God and everybody 

I politely blew my cool. 

Ain't no God in Mexico 

Ain't no comfort in the kin 

When you're down in Madamoris 

Gettin' busted by the man.

If I'd never felt the sunshine 

Hell, I would not curse the rain 

If I hadn't been railroaded 

Well I guess I'd been a train...
