I'm standing on a mesa drinking my cerveza
Watching the sun set in old Mexico
I see two vicaros chasing two banditos
They look the be on one hell of a run

And this old ghost town well it sure looks run down
I rarely see anybody around
But when the nighttime falls, and all their work is done
It runs into a big party town

And tihs life down in San Antone, Mexico
Well it turns into mescal drinking until dawn
And the guitar playin and the cowboy singin
are the best I ever heard
Yeah and life is good down in San Antone, Mexico

I'm sittin on a bar stool thinking I look real cool
When two senoritas come a walkin up to me
It was one hell of a sight, oh their dresses were oh so tight
Leavin my imagination nothing to see

And tihs life down in San Antone, Mexico
Well it turns into mescal drinking until dawn
And the guitar playin and the cowboy singin
are the best I ever heard
Yeah and life is good down in San Antone, Mexico
