Tijuana Jail

[Verse 1] Welcome to salvation, my tequila's my companion For this evening of oblivion See, everyone around me kinda bores me It makes me lonely, with the friends I never had I'm packing up my Mustang 'cause this city has no heart It sucks you in, and it spits you out Patiently I'm seeking, a destination is unknown I followed the road down to Mexico [Pre-Chorus] Sorry Mr. Officer, I think you got it wrong I'm a lonely ol' Texas boy and I wanna get on home He smiled and said, "Señor, you're not in Texas anymore" [Chorus] Send my love to my home, but send my mail To Tijuana jail [Verse 2] I was staring at the ceiling of my jail cell, it's my home At least for now, it seems like forever Sleeping on the floor with the rats crawling up my ass I'm gonna kill that officer, yeah [Pre-Chorus] Sorry Mr. Officer, but I'm gonna get revenge On this side of the border 20 pesos get you dead He smiled and said, "Señor, I think I'll drink to your threats" [Chorus] Send my love to my home, but send my mail To Tijuana jail [Solo] [Verse 3] In my destitution, suicide's a solution And I'm a gambler, and I'm not cashed in You see, the sun is going down and my problems will be solved By dawn, but not by justice I smelled liquor on his breath and I knew this was my last chance I begged, "Give a dying man his last drink" He handed me the glass with just the worm and then he laughed I pulled a switchblade from my boot And shoved it in his throat [Pre-Chorus] Sorry Mr. Officer I think you got it wrong I'm a lonely ol' Texas boy and I wanna get on home He smiled and said, "Señor, you're not in Texas anymore" [Chorus] Send my love to my home, but send my mail To a Texas jail
