Mexican Joe
recorded by Jim Reeves
written by Mitchell Torok
 
G                                D7
South of the border hey I know a lad
                                 G
He's got more fun than anybody's had
                                D7
Don't got no worry don't got no dough
                                   G
Everybody's wondering bout Mexican Joe
 
                                       D7
In old Mexico they call him the Rhumba King
                                G
Leads all the women around on a string
                                    D7
When they go out they get a million thrills
                                          G
But the lovely senoritas wind up with the bills
 
                                D7
Dancing romancing always on the go
                            G
Sun shining down on Mexican Joe
 
                                       D7
He makes the night spots all along the bay
                                           G
People want to see him when he comes their way
                                     D7
He spreads so much joy everywhere he goes
                                G
Everyone shouts Viva la Mexican Joe
 
                                    D7
He likes to gamble at poker he's an ace
                                            G
He's always lucky with the cards that got a face
                                  D7
At winning the money he is sure a whiz
                              
But when they win they don't collect
                               G
Cause they don't know where he is
 
Repeat #3
 
                                                 D7
He don't got no income tax cause he don't got no dough
                                              G
Still he gets along just fine how we'll never know
                                                D7
He's got everything he wants  a girl  a drink a song
                                         G
If we use his formula we surely can't go wrong
 
                                            D7
His favorite playground is anywhere there's girls
                                                 G
He's got that something that sets their hearts a-whirl
                                              D7
It couldn't be his money cause he ain't got a peso
                                               G
But when he wants a kiss all he's got to do is say so
 
Repeat #3
