F Went down to Mexico,
I drove my black El Camino
A# I met up with an old gringo
C He showed me round, and said to call him Joe.
F I was there about a week or so,
Wound up in the general hospital,
A# Joe said don't drink the water no more,
C How the hell was I supposed to know?

F Drove up to San Diego
Saw a sign for Mission Beach
A# And so, went out deep into the ocean,
C Saw a shark and had a stroke.
F Back in the ambulance I go,
Had a dream about a girl I used to know,
A# She said "I got to warn ya
C 'Bout Mexico and California."
G
A# She said "I got to warn ya
C 'Bout Mexico and California."
G

A# She said "I got to warn ya
C 'Bout Mexico and California."
F Earthquakes and sharks to start us off,
If Chupacabras ain't enough,
A# Black widow spiders and killer bees,
C There ain't no shade there ain't no trees.
F hot desert heat, polluted air,
There's traffic jams beyond compare.
A# That's all I got to warn ya
C 'bout Mexico and California
F
F Woke up and said I got to go,
Doc said "Relax, just take it slow."
A# I tried to argue, but don't you know,
C Bout California and Mexico?
F Right then, the doctor hit the floor,
The building shook, it shook some more,
A# I looked down at him and swore,
C "You son of a bitch! I told you so!"

If Chupacabras ain't enough,
A# Black widow spiders and killer bees,

There's traffic jams beyond compare.
