Mexico

I won't let you go
I won't let you go
Not to Detroit City
Not to Chicago

And I won't let you go
I won't let you go
Not to Mississippi
Not to Tupelo

But if you're going to leave
I'm asking you, please
Go all the way to Mexico

I won't let you leave
I won't let you leave
Not with all my django
Emmy Lou and Steve

I won't let you leave
I won't let you leave
Not with my revival
Tucked down in its sleeve

But if you're gonna go
Take the ones you gave to me
All the way to Mexico

All the way to the shore of California Bay
And I'll be fine
'Cause I have taken you back for the last time

And I won't set you free
I won't set you free
Not to say it's over
And come right back to me

But if you're gonna go
I'm giving you the key
But only if you'll go to Mexico

All the way to the shore of California Bay
And I'll be fine
'Cause I have taken you back for the last time

So if you're gonna go
I'm giving you the key
But only if you go to Mexico
