Album: Chris Young (2006)

I'm Headed Your Way, José

They'€™re comin across the border by the thousands everyday
Lookin'€™ for a better life in the good ol'€™ U.S.A.
Well, everybody'€™s talkin'€™ about the aliens invadin'€™
While I'€™m savin'€™ every dime for a Mexican vacation
Me, I'€™m headed your way, hasta luego Jose

You say '€œhola'€, I'€™ll say '€œhi'€
When I pass you at the border slap me a high five
You better pack a poncho '€˜cause it sure gets cold up here
Me, I'€™m headed south for hot women and cheap beer
Here'€™s the keys to my Chevrolet
You can have the house and the bills I pay
Welcome to the good ol'€™ U.S.A.
I'€™m headed your way, Jose
(Cuervo that is, lil'€™ sunshine, some margaritas,
Cabo San Lucas, maybe go see Chichinitza, I love that word)

Up here we work our asses off just tryin'€™ to get ahead
But you can'€™t spend a dollar if you'€™ve worked yourself to death
From what I hear you way of life is an afternoon siesta
Then back to work for a little while for an all night long fiesta
Me, I'€™m headed your way
Well sounds to me like a pretty fair trade

You say '€œhola'€, I'€™ll say '€œhi'€
When I pass you at the border slap me a high five
You better pack a poncho '€˜cause it sure gets cold up here
Me, I'€™m headed south for hot women and cheap beer
Here'€™s the keys to my Chevrolet
You can have the house and the bills I pay
Welcome to the good ol'€™ U.S.A.
I'€™m headed your way, Jose
(White sandy beaches, pesos and jalapenos,
Palm trees, ocean breeze, ah man, Dos Equis)

You say '€œhola'€, I'€™ll say '€œhi'€
When I pass you at the border slap me a high five
You better pack a poncho '€˜cause you'€™ll freeze your ass off here
Me, I'€™m headed south for hot women and cheap beer
Here'€™s the keys to my Chevrolet
You can have the house and the bills I pay
Me, I'€™m kickin'€™ back in the Mexican shade
I'€™m headed your way, Jose
(Yeah, I'€™m hittin'€™ the road, man, give me a little burro to ride on, you
can have my car, that gas is killin'€™ me)
Tell you what, I'll even say you uh, yeah I'll trade you my work boots for those sandles your wearin'
No really, come on Jose gimme your sandles!)
