Don't Drink the Water Lyrics

Empty house, empty rooms
Empty bottle of Petron
I need to go out but not around here
There ain't nowhere we haven't gone

There's this travel agent
That I know who says
Cozumel is real nice
And so he got me a deal on a flight
And a room and a little bit of free advice

Don't drink the water
I told him that's OK
I ain't going down
To Mexico to drink the water anyway

Blake ain't you been there before
I've been there a time or two
They got some sweet senoritas
That are more than glad to meet you
But I'm telling you boy that whatever you do

Don't drink the water
OK, OK
I ain't going down
To Mexico to drink the water anyway

Corona or Tecate
Or my old friend Jose
I ain't going down
To Mexico to drink the water anyway

On this trip anything I sip
Better have a kick and a burn
Strong enough to get you off my mind
Little by little and a little grub of worm

Don't drink the water
That's what they say
I ain't going down
To Mexico to drink the water anyway

No one I know goes to Mexico
To drink the water anyway
