[00:00.63]George Strait - The Seashores Of Old Mexico
[00:07.68]
[00:09.74]I left, out of Tucson, with no destination in mind.
[00:18.80]I was runnin＇ from trouble and the
[00:23.60]jail-term the Judge had in mind.
[00:27.44]And the border meant freedom
[00:32.98] a new life, romance,
[00:36.46]And that＇s why I thought I should go,
[00:39.50]And start my life over on the seashores of old Mexico.
[00:48.74]My first night in Juarez, lost all the money I had.
[00:57.07]
[00:57.83]One bad senorita made use of one innocent lad.
[01:07.06]But I must keep on runnin＇
[01:09.33]it＇s too late to turn back:
[01:13.46]I＇m wanted in Tucson, I＇m told.
[01:18.37]Yeah, an＇ things＇ll blow over on the
[01:23.34]seashores of old Mexico.
[01:27.90]Two Mexican farmers en route to a town I can＇t say,
[01:36.81]Let me ride on the back of a
[01:41.42]flatbed half-loaded with hay.
[01:47.00]
[01:47.23]Down through Durango, Colima, Almiera,
[01:51.90]Then in the Manzanillos,
[01:57.60]Where I slept on the seashores of old Mexico.
[02:06.73]After one long siesta, I came wide awake in the night.
[02:15.86]I was startled by someone who
[02:19.88]shadowed the pale moonlight.
[02:25.06]My new-found companion, one young senorita,
[02:30.50]Who offered a broken hello,
[02:36.54]To the gringo she found on the
[02:42.25]seashores of old Mexico.
[02:45.63]She spoke of Sonora
[02:50.48]and swore that she＇d never return,
[02:54.88]For her Mexican husband
[02:57.80]she really had no great concern.
[03:04.24]Cause she loved the gringo, my red hair and lingo:
[03:09.14]That＇s all I needed to know.
[03:15.53]Yeah, I found what I needed on the
[03:20.45]seashores of old Mexico.
[03:24.54]
[03:24.89]Yeah, she loved the gringo, my red hair and lingo:
[03:29.80]That＇s all I needed to know, ha, ha.
[03:36.19]Yeah, I found what I needed on the
[03:39.93]seashores of old Mexico.
