    A G F#m Em
  • Laid back in an old saloon, with a peso in my hand,
    A D
    Watchin' flies and children on the street,
  • A G F#m Em
    And I catch a glimpse of black-eyed girls who giggle when I
    smile,
  • A D
    There's a little boy who wants to shine my feet.
    G B Em
  • And it's three days ride from Bakersfield and I don't know why
    I came.
    A D
  • I guess I came to keep from payin' dues.
    G B Em
    So instead I've got a bottle and a girl who's just fourteen,
  • A
    And a damn good case of the Mexicali Blues. Yeh!
     
  • Chorus:
    |
    | D
  • | Is there anything a man don't stand to lose,
    | A
    | When the devil wants to take it all away?
  • | A
    | Cherish well your thoughts, and keep a tight grip on
    | your booze,
  • | A
    | Cause thinkin' and drinkin' are all I have today.
     
  •  
    She said her name was Billy Jean and she was fresh in town.
    I didn't know a stage line ran from Hell.
  • She had ravin' hair, a ruffled dress, a necklace made of gold,
    All the french perfume you'd care to smell.
     
  • She took me up into her room and whispered in my ear,
    "Go on, my friend, do anything you choose."
    Now I'm payin' for those happy hours I spent there in her arms,
  • With a lifetime's worth of the Mexicali Blues.
     
    (CHORUS)
  •  
    And then a man rode into town, some thought he was the law.
    Billy Jean was waitin' when he came.
  • She told me he would take her, if I didn't use my gun,
    I'd have no one but myself to blame.
     
  • I went down to those dusty streets, blood was on my mind.
    I guess that stranger hadn't heard the news
    Cause I shot first and killed him, Lord, he didn't even draw
  • And he made me trade the gallows for the Mexicali Blues.
    (or, Now I spend my lifetime runnin' with the Mexicali Blues)
     
  • Is there anything a man don't stand to lose
    When he lets a woman hold him in her hands?
    He just might find himself out there on horseback in the dark
  • Just ridin' and runnin' across those desert sands.
