I didn't know you weren't supposed to drink the water 
I never knew it was so hard to get through south of that border 
If I had any idea it took that many pesos to make a dollar 
I'd have moved down there 
Yeah, I'd probably been a millionare 
Rosa at the bayou told me Sinco de Mayo is their fourth of July 
And you don't sneak up on a jabanero pepper and just take a bite 
Rosa says the sunsets on some of them beaches that'll make you cry 
I said, is that right? 
Cuz up until tonight 

All I knew about Mexico 
Was him with my baby on the back of that Harley 
Passin' every car as fast as they could go 
And all I know about pretty a white sand 
Is she's probably on it now sharing a little beach towel 
With her "left me for another" man 
Or working on a tan I bet 
While I'm here trying to forget 
All I know about Mexico 

And I've heard some pretty scary stuff about them jails down in Tijuana 
And it ain't nothin' like the US if you get busted 
And I hear he's all hauked up on that marijuana 
I can't help but worrying about her being down there when he leaves her 
And you know he's gonna leave her 
Any day now, yeah, the cops will come around 
Wanna know what I've known 

All I know about Mexico 
Was him with my baby on the back of that Harley 
Passin' every car as fast as they could go 
And all I know about a pretty white sand 
Is she's probably on it now sharing a little beach towel 
With her "left me for another" man 
Oh she's working on her tan I bet 
While I'm here trying to forget 
All I know about Mexico
