[Verse 1]
Driving out on Ponchatrain, Louisiana mud
Cleaning off the insects to get a little light
You're confined to Dallas and I think you're right
To find other solutions, maybe not but I might
[Pre-Chorus]
I might be looking at trouble again, fighting above my weight
But when things look so easy, you want to be careful in case
[Verse 2]
Close as I am to you I'm closer to Gila Bend
I'll call you in the morning and tell you where to send
The last thing that we talked about after you had left
That message on my party line that you were miles ahead
[Pre-Chorus]
I might be looking at trouble again fighting above my weight
When things are looking easy, you want to be careful in case
[Chorus]
You're dancing undercover of a mariachi moon
When the clouds passing over us, we'll be out of here soon
[Steel Guitar and Fiddle Solos]
[Verse 3]
Thanks for thinking of me and thanks for the flowers
Deadly nightshade is beautiful, I could stare at them for hours
I crossed the border this morning you come across tonight
You lost the map of Mexico, that wasn't very bright
[Pre-Chorus]
I could be looking at trouble again fighting above my weight
When things are looking easy, you gotta be careful in case
[Chorus]
You're dancing undercover of a mariachi moon
Dancing dancing dancing, we'll be out of here soon
You're dancing undercover of a mariachi moon
Dancing dancing dancing, we'll be out of here soon
You're dancing undercover of a mariachi moon
Dancing dancing dancing, we'll be out of here soon
