***************** AIN'T GOD IN MEXICO ******************
written by Billy Joe Shaver
performed by Waylon Jennings.
Verse 1:
Down theF road a ways i've heard said a new day'Gs coming on
Where the women foClks are friendly and the law leavFes you alone
I'll believe it when i see it and i haven't Gseen it yet
Don't mind me justD keep on talking i'm just looking Gfor my hat
Chorus 1:
There ain't no CGod in Mexico,ain't no way to Gunderstand
How that border crossing feeling makes afool out of a man C
If i'd never felt the sunshine thGen i would not curse the rain
If my feet could fit a railroad track,i guess i'd been a train C
Verse 2:
Me and LFouise Higgins-Botham used to chase acrGoss the yard
Back in 1947 thaCt's when more thanF times were hard
Well pity me i didn't find the line in time likGe a fool
In front of God and Deverybody i politely bGlew my cool
Chorus 2:
Ain't no God in MCexico,ain't no comfort Gin the king
When you're down in Madamoris getting busted by the man C
If i'd never felt the sunshine,Hell i wGould not curse the rain
If i hadn't been railroaded well i guess i'd been a train C
