Hey tell 'em about it T-man

Me and some buddies were workin' down Lubbock

Lookin' for somethin' to do

Somebody had the bright idea

To cross the border and have us a few

It all started off with some cold Coronas

Tequila, salt and line

Four senoritas and an El Camino

Wanted to have a good time

You can say that you've been all around the world

And you've got a lot of stories to tell

But I bet you next months rent that you never spent

A weekend in Mexican jail

Aye-aye-aye-aye if you can't make bail

It's a weekend in Mexican jail (Arriba!)

We all piled in and left the cantina

Behind us in a cloud of dust

She was drivin' so fast we didn't even notice

Blue lights chasin' us

Then he showed me the badge

Said somethin' in Spanish

Whatever it was, it wasn't good

And all I remember were those handcuffs clickin'

And my face on the dusty hood

You can say that you've been all around the world

And got a lot of stories to tell

But I bet you next months rent

That you never spent

A weekend in Mexican jail

Aye-aye-aye-aye if you can't make bail

It's a weekend in Mexican jail

(can somebody play somethin' hot on that six string)

(Hey if you fall a little short on faith, Susan)

(You get this next round)

(Woo-hoo-hoo)

(Can tell what happens right here)

Yeah, south of the border looks warm in pictures

But believe me the nights get cold

But if you go, don't run off with the Federale's daughter

'Cause you might not make it home

Yeah, unfortunately I know

You can say that you've been all around the world

And got a lot of stories to tell

But I bet you next months rent

That you never spent

A weekend in Mexican jail

Aye-aye-aye-aye if you can't make bail

It's a weekend in Mexican jail

(What do y'all say we come back next weekend?)

(I don't think Trey ever left)

(Can't believe y'all left me here)
