Ry Cooder — Mexican Divorce
(Burt Bacharach/Bob Hilliard)
It's a sin for you to get a Mexican divorce
Down below El Paso lies Juarez
Mexico is different, like a travel folder says
Cross the Rio Grande and you will find
An old adobe house
Where you leave your past behind
One day married, next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time, for you to get
A Mexican divorce
As I came into this lonely house last night
I looked at all my windows but I couldn't find one light
I found you on that road to Mexico
And now, my love, I beg
Please, oh, please, don't go
One day married, next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
It's a sin for you to get a Mexican divorce
Finding love takes so long
Walking out must be wrong
It's a sin for you to get a Mexican divorce
One day married, next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
It's a sin for you to get a Mexican divorce
It's a sin for you to get a Mexican divorce
Down below El Paso lies Juarez
Mexico is different, like a travel folder says
Cross the Rio Grande and you will find
An old adobe house
Where you leave your past behind
One day married, next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time, for you to get
A Mexican divorce
As I came into this lonely house last night
I looked at all my windows but I couldn't find one light
I found you on that road to Mexico
And now, my love, I beg
Please, oh, please, don't go
One day married, next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
It's a sin for you to get a Mexican divorce
Finding love takes so long
Walking out must be wrong
It's a sin for you to get a Mexican divorce
One day married, next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
It's a sin for you to get a Mexican divorce
