mexican divorce

Burt Bacharach

Down below el paso lies juarez
Mexico is different, like the travel folder says
Cross the rio grand and you will find
An old adobe house where you can leave your past behind

One day married next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time an all to forget
A mexican divorce

As i came to this empty house last night
Looked out all the windows
And i couldn't find one light
Found you on this road to mexico
And now my love i'm pleading
Please, oh please, don't go

One day married next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time at all to get
A mexican divorce

Finding love takes so long
Walking out must be wrong
It's a sin for you to get
A mexican divorce

One day married next day free
Broken hearts for you and me
Takes no time at all to get
A mexican divorce
