They told me all the hymns were born

Out of the saxophone,

And I went down to test them all

Beneath the Tijuana moon,

I saw violence in the moon

Two broken lovers strong and strewn,

I drank myself into a dream:

Tijuana moon,

My daddy Tijuana moon,

Oh my darlin',

Tijuana moon Lord my daddy

Tijuana moon

You can keep the Texas blues,

Tequila and the burning stone,

But my amigo

Nothin's good against the Tijuana moon

Talk about daddy Tijuana moon

Talk about lovin' Tijuana moon

Talk about daddy Tijuana moon
