Mexicali Blues - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]

Laid back in an old saloon [00:00:16]

With a peso in my hand [00:00:18]

Watchin flies and children on the street [00:00:20]

And I catch a glimpse of black-eyed girls[00:00:24]

Who giggle when I smile [00:00:27]

There's a little boy[00:00:28]

Who wants to shine my feet [00:00:30]

And it's three days ride from bakersfield[00:00:32]

And I don't know why I came [00:00:35]

I guess I came to keep[00:00:37]

From payin dues [00:00:39]

So instead Ive got a bottle[00:00:41]

And a girl whos just fourteen [00:00:43]

And a damn good case of[00:00:45]

The mexicali blues yeh [00:00:47]

Is there anything a man[00:00:50]

Don't stand to lose [00:00:52]

When the devil wants to[00:00:54]

Take it all away [00:00:56]

Cherish well your thoughts [00:00:58]

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

Cause thinkin and drinkin[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[00:01:27]

Ran from hell [00:01:29]

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

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

All the french perfume[00:01:35]

You'd care to smell [00:01:36]

She took me up into her room[00:01:39]

And whispered in my ear [00:01:41]

Go on my friend [00:01:43]

Do anything you choose [00:01:44]

Now Im payin for those happy hours[00:01:47]

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

With a lifetimes worth[00:01:52]

Of the mexicali blues [00:01:53]

Is there anything a man[00:01:57]

Don't stand to lose [00:01:58]

When the devil wants to[00:02:01]

Take it all away [00:02:02]

Cherish well your thoughts [00:02:04]

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

Cause thinkin and drinkin[00:02:09]

And then a man rode into town [00:02:29]

Some thought he was the law [00:02:31]

Billy jean was waitin when he came [00:02:34]

She told me he would take her [00:02:38]

If I didn't use my gun [00:02:40]

Id have no one but myself to blame [00:02:42]

I went down to those dusty streets [00:02:46]

Blood was on my mind [00:02:48]

I guess that stranger[00:02:50]

Hadnt heard the news[00:02:51]

Cause I shot first and killed him [00:02:54]

Lord he didn't even draw[00:02:56]

And he made me trade the gallows[00:02:59]

For the mexicali blues [00:03:00]

Is there anything a man[00:03:04]

Don't stand to lose[00:03:05]

When he lets a woman[00:03:07]

Hold him in her hands [00:03:09]

He just might find himself out there[00:03:11]

On horseback in the dark[00:03:13]

Just ridin and runnin[00:03:16]

Across those desert sands[00:03:17]
