[Intro] [clean electric guitar rhythmic pattern, steady drums, melodic bass] [Verse 1] [male tenor vocals] There's a little place we can go South of the border in Mexico Where we can watch as the sea Fades into the land We've been watching nickels and saving dimes I want to go where the sun it shines And we can walk down the beach At dawn hand in hand [falsetto] Hmm, it could be so grand [Chorus] We could take the next plane tonight Be on the beach by morning light Chasing the waves [vocal harmony] As they crash on the shore Drinking margaritas and tequila sunrise Making love under open skies Think how great it could be Who could ask for more [falsetto] Hmm, I know that I'm sure Hmm, it's you I adore [Bridge] [guitar scratch rhythm] Time is wasting let's make up our minds Let's leave our everyday life behind The plane is waiting you know To take us away We'll spend the weekend in paradise Leave the dog with the neighbors tell your mother you'll write But you know we'll be back For work on Monday [falsetto] Hmm, what do you say Hmm, can we steal away [Outro] [vocal harmonies] Steal away to Mexico Steal away to Mexico Let's go to Mexico Mexico Mexico [falsetto] Let's go
