***************** AIN'T GOD IN MEXICO ****************** written by Billy Joe Shaver performed by Waylon Jennings. Verse 1:
Down theD road a ways i've heard said a new day'Es coming on Where the women foAlks are friendly and the law leavDes you alone I'll believe it when i see it and i haven't Eseen it yet Don't mind me justB keep on talking i'm just looking Efor my hat
Chorus 1:
There ain't no AGod in Mexico,ain't no way to Eunderstand How that border crossing feeling makes afool out of a man A If i'd never felt the sunshine thEen i would not curse the rain If my feet could fit a railroad track,i guess i'd been a train A
Verse 2:
Me and LDouise Higgins-Botham used to chase acrEoss the yard Back in 1947 thaAt's when more thanD times were hard Well pity me i didn't find the line in time likEe a fool In front of God and Beverybody i politely bElew my cool
Chorus 2:
Ain't no God in MAexico,ain't no comfort Ein the king When you're down in Madamoris getting busted by the man A If i'd never felt the sunshine,Hell i wEould not curse the rain If i hadn't been railroaded well i guess i'd been a train A
