You love sun in the distance
Trying to be a pretty golden brown
Smoke and rum is my mission
Happiness is all I need right now

Gonna come a time
There's gonna come a time when
I can go to Mexico

I believe in the here and now
I believe in the here and now
Tomorrow's pain will melt away.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/cassandra+wilson/go+to+mexico_20835032.html ]
Get your hands on the trigger
I saw the latest story on TV
A blue bag flowed past my window
This helicopter's too damn close to me

And there's
There's gonna come a time
There will come a time
We'll be just like Mexico

When I go there
When I go there
I'll be wearing purple ribbons when I go there

When I go there
I'll be dancing in the street when I go there
When I go there

We can go to Mexico
