Letra de Mexican money

I been workin´ on the boats in Galveston Bay
Holdin´ on to what I can when I draw my pay
I love a girl south of the Rio Grande
Been savin´ up to bright her to the promised land
Bring her to the promised land

Well I got a few hundred but it ain´t too much
Compared to just a smile from me one I love
So when I got a letter said she missed her man
I knew I was gonna have to change my plans
Gonna have to change my plans

I´m gonna trade my dollars for Mexican money
Mexican money that´s what I need
Gonna live forever with my Mexican honey
She´s there waitin´ for me

[ guitar ]
Well I left her standin´ down in the ocean breeze
Promised I would build a life for her and me
But I can´t get ahead no matter how I try
I think it´s time that I was tellin´ Texas goodbye
Tellin´ ol´ Texas goodbye

So tonight I´m headin´ down to the borderline
Takin´ what I can leaving the rest behind
Long as I´ve got her there´s one thing I know
I´ll be the richest man in Mexico
Richest man in Mexico

I´m gonna trade my dollars for Mexican money...
I´m gonna trade my dollars for Mexican money...
