Ain’t No God in Mexico Waylon Jennings

[Verse 1]
Down the road a ways I've heard say a new day's coming on
Where the women folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone
I'll believe it when I see it and I haven't seen it yet
Don't mind me, just keep on talking, I'm just looking for my hat

[Chorus 1]
Ain't no God in Mexico, ain't no way to understand
How that border crossing feeling makes a fool out of a man
If I'd never felt the sunshine, hell, I would not curse the rain
If my feet could fit a railroad track I guess I'd been a train

[Verse 2]
Me and Louise Higginbotham used to chase across the yard
Back in 1947, that's when more than times were hard
Well, pity me, I didn't find the line in time like a fool
In front of God and everybody I politely blew my cool

[Chorus 2]
Ain't no God in Mexico, ain't no comfort in the cane
When you're down in Matamoros gettin' busted by the man
If I'd never felt the sunshine, hell, I would not curse the rain
If I hadn't been railroaded, well, I guess I'da been a train
