Mexicali Blues (LI've at Denver Coliseum Denver CO 11/21/73) - Grateful Dead[00:00:01]

Laid back in an old saloon [00:00:20]

With a peso in my hand [00:00:22]

Watchin flies and children on the street [00:00:24]

And I catch a glI'mpse of black-eyed[00:00:28]

Girls who giggle when I smile [00:00:30]

There's a little boy who[00:00:32]

Wants to shine my feet [00:00:33]

And it's three days ride from[00:00:36]

Bakersfield and I don't know why I came [00:00:38]

I guess I came to keep from payin dues [00:00:40]

So instead I've got a bottle[00:00:44]

And a girl who's just fourteen [00:00:46]

And a damn good case[00:00:48]

Of the mexicali blues yeh [00:00:49]

Is there anything a man don't stand to lose [00:00:53]

When the devil wants to take it all away [00:00:57]

Cherish well your thoughts [00:01:01]

And keep a tight grip on your booze [00:01:02]

Cause thinkin and drinkin[00:01:05]

Are all I have today [00:01:06]

She said her name was billy[00:01:25]

Jean and she was fresh in town [00:01:27]

I didn't know a stage line ran from hell [00:01:29]

She had raven hair a ruffled dress [00:01:33]

A necklace made of gold [00:01:35]

All the french perfume youd care to smell [00:01:37]

She took me up into her room[00:01:41]

And whispered in my ear [00:01:43]

Go on my friend do anything you choose [00:01:45]

Now I'm payin for those happy hours[00:01:49]

I spent there in her arms [00:01:51]

With a lifetI'mes worth of the mexicali blues [00:01:54]

Is there anything a man don't stand to lose [00:01:59]

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

Cherish well your thoughts and keep[00:02:06]

A tight grip on your booze[00:02:08]

Cause thinkin and drinkin are all I have today [00:02:10]

And then a man rode into town [00:02:31]

Some thought he was the law [00:02:32]

Billy jean was waitin when he came [00:02:35]

She told me he would take her [00:02:39]

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

Id have no one but myself to blame [00:02:43]

I went down to those dusty streets [00:02:47]

Blood was on my mind [00:02:49]

I guess that stranger hadnt heard the news[00:02:51]

Cause I shot first and killed hI'm [00:02:55]

Lord he didn't even draw[00:02:57]

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

For the mexicali blues [00:03:01]

Is there anything a man don't stand to lose[00:03:04]

When he let's a woman[00:03:07]

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

He just might find hI'mself out there[00:03:12]

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

Just ridin and runnin across[00:03:15]

Those desert sands[00:03:17]
