Cheech performed this song, with Chong accompanying on guitar, in Cheech & Chong’s Next Movie in 1980. Moments afterward, Chong would improvise a similar song, titled “Beaners.”
[Verse: Cheech Marin]
Mexican Americans don't like to just get into gang fights
They like flowers and music and white girls named Debbie too
Mexican Americans are named Chata and Chella and Chemma
And have a son-in-law named Jeff
Mexican Americans don't like to get up early in the morning
But they have to so they do it real slow
Mexican Americans love education so they go to night school
And they take Spanish and get a B
Mexican Americans love their Nana's and their Nono's and their
Nina's and their Nino's nano nano nina nono!
Mexican Americans don't like to go to the movies where the
Dude has to wear contact lenses to make his blue eyes brown
'Cause don't it make my brown eyes blue.....
Mexican Americans was written by Tommy Chong & Cheech Marin.
