Tuning: G C E A
written by Billy Joe Shaver performed by Waylon Jennings. Verse 1:
Down thFe road a ways i've heard said a new dayG's coming on Where the women fColks are friendly and the law leaFves you alone I'll believe it when i see it and i haven'tG seen it yet Don't mind me jusDt keep on talking i'm just lookingG for my hat
Chorus 1:
There ain't noC God in Mexico,ain't no way toG understand 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 FLouise Higgins-Botham used to chase acGross the yard Back in 1947 thCat's when more thaFn times were hard Well pity me i didn't find the line in time liGke a fool In front of God andD everybody i politely Gblew my cool
Chorus 2:
Ain't no God in CMexico,ain't no comfortG in 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
