Mexico Lyrics & Tabs by The Les Humphries Singers
Mexico
guitar chords lyrics
In 1580 we sailed our little ship around the coastOf Africa down the Gaza strip.
We took some salty bacon and a hammock for a bed.
Then we mixed it with the Spaniards in the middle of the Med.
Well we hired our fundsSaw the pretty girls a comin'.
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while agoWe hired some more and then we got it runnin'AII down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
Well Francis Drake said if you really want a fightThe best thing is to catch them in the middle of the night.
We hoisted anchor and powdered up the gunThen we sailed around in circles and just waited for the fun.
Well cannon balls flew and the ship began to sink the water started risin' so we really had to think.
And then by chance stood a man as black as coalSo we grabbed him by the trousers and we plugged him in the hole Well we fired from the side port and we fired from the backAnd then we fired from the galley and through every little crack.
We fired so much that the cook started cooking.
Didn't have to worry so we flew the union jack.
