[Verse 1]
Well, down in Mexicali
There's a crazy little place that I know
Where the chicks are hotter than the chili sauce
And the boss is a cat named Joe
[Chorus]
He wears a red bandana, plays a cool piana
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash and a black moustache
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
[Verse 2]
Well, the first time that I saw him
He was sittin' on a piana stool
I said, "Tell me, dad, when does the fun get had?"
He just winked his eye and said, "Man, be cool"
[Chorus]
He wears a red bandana, plays a cool piana
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash and a black moustache
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico, in Mexico
[Bridge]
All of a sudden, in walks a chick (In Mexico)
Joe starts playing on a Latin kick (In Mexico)
All she was wearing was three fishnets (In Mexico)
She started swayin' with her castanets (In Mexico)
I didn't know just what to expect (In Mexico)
She threw her arms all around my neck (In Mexico)
We started dancin' all around the floor (In Mexico)
And then she did a dance I never saw before
[Verse 3]
So if you're south of the border
I'm talkin' down in Mexico
And you want to get straight, man, don't hesitate
Just look up a cat named Joe
[Chorus]
He wears a red bandana, plays a cool piana
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash and a black moustache
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico, in Mexico
[Outro]
Hey, cómo estás, hey, señorita, hahahaha (In Mexico)
How would you like to get to know me better? (In Mexico)
Would you like a margarita? Hoo-hoo-hoo, yes (In Mexico)
In Mexico
In Mexico
In Mexico
In Mexico
