Lyrics
verse 1
Wild beauty with the face of an angel
He thought he would be the one who would tame her
Years of following her around finally wore her down
Til she said....c'mon let's go get married.
Chorus
We can leave right now
Just get up and go
We might all the way
Down to Mexico
Put on your pretty white dress
I'll grab my hat and coat
And we'll make it all the way down to Mexico....oh....oh....ohhh
Down To mexico ....oh....oh....ohhh
Down To Mexico
Verse2
10 years later now a family
3 kids and a havanese
Same routine day to day
Hoping just to hear the other say
Chorus
We can leave right now
Just get up and go
We might all the way
Down to Mexico
Put on your pretty white dress
I'll grab my hat and coat
And we'll make it all the way down to Mexico....oh....oh....ohhh
Down To mexico ....oh....oh....ohhh
Down To Mexico
Verse 3
Now the kids all have their own families
And only memories of that havanese
Now they ask themselves where did time go?
Maybe we'll find it down in Mexico
Chorus
We can leave right now
Just get up and go
We might all the way
Down to Mexico
Put on your pretty white dress
I'll grab my hat and coat
And we'll make it all the way down to Mexico....oh....oh....ohhh
Down To mexico ....oh....oh....ohhh
Down To Mexico
