As I lay sick and broken, Viva Mexico
My eyes just won't stay open
And I dream, I dream of home
Where there's coffee on the table
And kindness in your hand
Honey, I'll help you when I'm able,
but right now I'm feeling bad
Right now I'm feeling bad
But listen to your heart that beats
And follow it with both your feet
And as you walk and as you breathe
You ain't no friend to me
You ain't no friend to me
But my eyes they open slowly
The old man he seems worried
and there ain't no sign of you
There ain't no sign of you
Listen to your heart that beats
and follow it with both your feet
And as you walk and as you breathe
You ain't no friend to me
You ain't no friend to me
You can offer to the righteous
All the good that you've won
But down here among the unclean
All your good just comes undone
The sisters at the borderline
Oh, they're holding out their hands
They're begging me for something, Lord
Oh, but I don't understand
Tell him to stay between the lines
If he sees that Gabriela girl
Tell her I'll look her up next time
Say, I'll look her up next time
Because the road to Ensenada
And this time through Tier 1
But listen to your heart that beats
and follow it with both your feet
And as you walk and as you breathe,
you ain't no friend to me
You ain't no friend to me
Oh, you ain't no friend to me you
