| Mexico (Rick Roberts) Last night it snowed for the first time, everything's covered in white How many months till the springtime, it's a long winter's night I have to go, I feel I'm sinkin' I just don't know, but I can't stop thinkin' Mexico Somewhere that's close to the ocean, somewhere that's warm and alive Somewhere to sleep in the open, with the sun in my eyes I have to go, I feel I'm sinkin' I just don't know, but I can't stop thinkin' Mexico Winter wind blowin', and Lord but they sting Summer wind sing to me, promise me everything Blue skies and sunshine wherever I go Sweet senoritas are, waiting to love me I know Mexico, Mexico, Mexico Copyright 1976, Firefall. Rick Roberts tells: I was sleeping one night and I had a dream with the basics of this song. I got up at about 3am and started writing it right then. The mariachi horns were already there in the dream version. |
