Guns, Drugs, & Money

[Verse 1]
Drinking cold cerveza in a boiling hot saloon
Chasing shots of tequila
Just about high noon
Outside Nuevo Laredo
Deep in no man’s land
Become a killer or be killed
Face down in the Rio Grande

[Pre-Chorus]
Poverty will turn the life of any good man bad
All love and mercy ever learned
He’ll soon forget what he had

[Chorus]
Guns, drugs, and money
Under the Mexican sky
Guns, drugs, and money
Pick your poison or you die
Guns, drugs, and money
A pistol pressed to his head
Choose silver and you're rich
You die if you choose lead

[Verse 2]
He had a suitcase full of money
Plenty of ammo for his gun
The sweat rolls down his dirty face
His plans have all come undone
It’s just a matter of time
No matter how he tries
He hears “¿Plata o plomo, gringo?”
The last words before he dies

[Pre-Chorus]
Poverty will turn the life of any good man bad
All love and mercy ever learned
He’ll soon forget what he had

[Chorus]
Guns, drugs, and money
Under the Mexican sky
Guns, drugs, and money
Pick your poison or you die
Guns, drugs, and money
A pistol pressed to his head
Choose silver and you're rich
You're gonna die if you choose lead

[Chorus]
Guns, drugs, and money
Under the Mexican sky
Guns, drugs, and money
Pick your poison or you die
Guns, drugs, and money
A pistol pressed to his head
Choose silver and you're rich
You're gonna die if you choose lead

[Outro]
Guns, drugs, and money
Guns, drugs, and money
Guns, drugs, and money
Guns, drugs, and money
