Written by：Thompson

We went one day about a month ago ha ha ha

To have a little fun in Mexico

We ended up in the gambling spot ha ha ha

Where the liquor flowed and the dice were hot

So here we are in the Tijuana jail ain't got

No friends to go our bail

So here we'll stay 'cause we can't pay just send

Our mail to the Tijuana jail

I was shooting dice

Raking in the dough long green

And then I heard a whistle blow

We started to run

When a man in blue said

Señor come with me 'cause I want you

So here we are in the Tijuana jail ain't got

No friends to go our bail

So here we'll stay 'cause we can't pay just send

Our mail to the Tijuana jail

Ahee

Just five hundred dollars and they'll set us free

I couldn't raise a penny if they threatened me

I know five hundred don't sound like much cheap

Just try to find somebody to touch

So here we are in the Tijuana jail ain't got

No friends to go our bail

So here we'll stay 'cause we can't pay just send

Our mail to the Tijuana jail

So here we are in the Tijuana jail ain't got

No friends to go our bail

So here we'll stay 'cause we can't pay just send

Our mail to the Tijuana jail
