Written 2009-2010 by Mike Gilroy "Never Been To Mexico"
Yes that's right, I've never been to Mexico. A simple idea that turned into a song. I used to live in SoCal... and I've been off the coast of Mexico, I've been almost to the border around San Diego and I've been to Guatemala. Maybe I'm not missing anything but at some point can I please visit Mexico without it being denied from me?
This is the closest to a country song I think I've come. I just try to write good songs, if it comes out sounding country, so be it. Catchy and memorable are more important qualities to have than a specific genre.
Lyrics
--------
Promises made by a ship just today
Gonna give you some more, time on the shore
As it turns out you prob'ly found out.
We will skip this place, love the look on your face.
If you wanna, when you wanna, we can go, you should know I've never been down to Mexico
Wind in her hair screamin' I don't know where
They can hear our sound with the window rolled down
Talkin' all night, she was lookin' alright
In a sweet motel, we can let it all out
If you wanna, when you wanna we can go, I wonder how they do it down in mexico.
Down in Mexico if I ever get asked
I will follow the path that leads to romance
I have just one wish, its all I need
Could you promise a trip,
One that's guaranteed.
A promise was made
Truth was out in the shade
It doesn't make it okay
I feel betrayed
Yeah... I've never been to Mexico either. But I'm further :P
Nice song! (;
