Standard (EADGBE)

 As I lay sick and broken

Viva Mexico

 My eyes just won't stay open

 And I dream a dream of home

 I dream a dream of home

 Where there's coffee on the table

 And kindness in your hand

Honey I'll help you when I'm able

 But right now I'm feeling bad

 Right now I'm feeling bad

  Listen to your heart that beats

  And follow it with both your feet

  And as you walk and as you breathe

  You ain't no friend to me

  You ain't no friend to me

 The road to Ensenada

Is plenty wide and fast

 If you head South from Tijuana

 Then I'll see you at last

I'll see you at last

 But my eyes they open slowly

 And they look around the room

 The old man he seems worried

 And there ain't no sign of you

 There ain't no sign of you

Chorus

 You can offer to the righteous

 The good that you have won

 But down here among the unclean

 Your good just comes undone

 Your good just comes undone

Solo on Verse

 The sisters at the borderline

 They're holding out their hands

 They're begging me for something Lord

 But I don't understand

I don't understand

 So it's adios to Alvero

 Tell him to stay between the lines

 And if he sees that Gabriella girl

 Tell her I'll look her up next time

 Say I'll look her up next time

 Because the road to Ensenada

Is plenty wide and fast

And this time through Tijuana

 Well it won't be my last

It won't be my last

Chorus
