Down Into Mexico

There was a casino out in Vegas

Had a million dollars on the wall

Got my imagination workin' overtime

I knew I had to have it all

I knew I had to have it all

Sherrie was a dancer, she was a schemer

We came up with a fool-proof plan

She was workin' it from the inside

I was her getaway man

yeah, I was her getaway man

Takin' it deep down into Mexico

No turnin' back once you go down that road

Just one place for a desperate

Desperado to go

Take it deep down into Mexico

It all went smooth and sweet as honey

We got it all and nobody got hurt

He and Sherrie, we were countin' our money

When that gun slid out of her purse

That little gun slid out of her purse

That's when she told me 'bout her lover man

That's when I knew I was in a terrible mess

She took the blame, he took the money

I took a bullet in my chest

I took a bullet in my chest

Takin' it deep down into Mexico

No turnin' back once you go down that road

Just one place for a desperate

Desperado to go

Take it deep down into Mexico
