Mexican Joe (1953)
South of the border hey I know a lad
He’s got more fun than anybody’s had
Don’t got no worries, don’t got no dough
Everybody’s wondering about Mexican Joe
In Old Mexico they call him the rumba king
Leads all the woman around on a string
When they go out they get a million thrills
But the lovely senioritis wind up with the bill
Dancing, romancing always on the go
Sun shining down on Mexican Joe
He makes the nightspots all along the bay
People want to see him when he comes their way
He spreads so much joy everywhere he goes
Everyone shouts Viva La Mexican Joe
He likes to gamble at poker he’s an ace
He’s always lucky with cards that has a face
At winning the money he is sure a whiz
But when they win they don’t collect
Cause they don’t know where he is
Dancing, romancing always on the go
Sun shining down on Mexican Joe
He don’t got no income tax cause he ain’t got no dough
Still he gets along just fine how we’ll never know
He’s got everything he wants a girl, a drink, a song
If we use his formula we surly can’t go wrong
His favorite playground is anywhere there’s girls
He’s got that something that’s sets their hearts awhirl
It couldn’t be his money cause he ain’t got a peso
But when he wants a kiss all he’s got to do is say so
Dancing, romancing always on the go
Sun shining down on Mexican Joe
