Starin' out into the wild blue yonder So many thoughts to sit and ponder 'Bout life and love and lack of And this emptiness in my heart Too old to be wild and free still Too young to be over the hill Should I try to grow up? But who knows where to start So I just Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Do my best to waste another day Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Let the warm air melt these blues away Sun comes up and sun sinks down And I seen 'em both in this tourist town Up for days in a rage Just tryin' to search my soul From the answers and the reasons why I'm at these crossroads in my life And I really don't know Which way to go So I just Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Do my best to waste another day Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Let the warm air melt these blues away Maybe I'll settle down, get married Or stay single and stay free Which road I travel Is still a mystery to me So I just Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Do my best to waste another day Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Let the warm air melt these blues away Down in Mexico
