Mexicali Blues (Live at Oakland Auditorium Arena December 28 1979) - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]

Laid back in an old saloon with a peso in my hand [00:00:18]

Just watchin' flies and children on the street [00:00:22]

I catch a glimpse of black-eyed girls[00:00:26]

Who giggle when I smile [00:00:28]

There's a little boy who wants to shine my feet [00:00:30]

And It's three days ride from Bakersfield [00:00:34]

And I don't know why I came [00:00:36]

I guess I came to keep from payin' dues [00:00:38]

So instead I've got a bottle[00:00:42]

And a girl who's just fourteen [00:00:44]

And a damned good case of the Mexicali Blues Yeah [00:00:46]

Is there anything a man don't stand to lose[00:00:51]

When the Devil wants to take it all away [00:00:55]

Cherish well your thoughts[00:00:59]

And keep a tight grip on your booze[00:01:00]

Cause thinkin' and drinkin' are all I have today [00:01:03]

She said her name was Billy Jean[00:01:23]

And she was fresh in town [00:01:25]

I didn't know a stage-line ran from Hell [00:01:27]

She had raven hair a ruffled dress [00:01:31]

A necklace made of gold [00:01:33]

And all the french perfume you'd care to smell [00:01:35]

She took me up into her room[00:01:40]

And whispered in my ear [00:01:42]

Go on my friend do anything you choose "[00:01:44]

Now I'm payin' for those happy hours[00:01:48]

I spent there in her arms[00:01:50]

With a life-time's worth of Mexicali Blues [00:01:52]

Is there anything a man don't stand to lose[00:01:57]

When the Devil wants to take it all away [00:02:00]

Cherish well your thoughts[00:02:04]

And keep a tight grip on your booze[00:02:06]

Cause thinkin' and drinkin' are all I have today [00:02:08]

Where then a man rode into town[00:03:33]

Some thought he was the law [00:03:35]

But Billy Jean was waitin' when he came [00:03:37]

She told me he would take her[00:03:42]

If I didn't use my gun[00:03:43]

And I'd have no one but myself to blame [00:03:46]

I went down to those dusty streets - blood was on my mind [00:03:50]

I guess that stranger hadn't heard the news [00:03:54]

Cause I shot first and killed him [00:03:58]

Lord he didn't even draw [00:04:00]

And he made me trade the gallows for the Mexicali Blues [00:04:02]

Is there anything a man don't stand to lose[00:04:06]

When he lets a woman hold him in her hand [00:04:11]

You just might find yourself out there[00:04:14]

On horseback in the dark[00:04:16]

Just ridin' and runnin' across those desert sands[00:04:18]
