The Tijuana Jail — текст песни (Kingston Trio)

Denny Thompson

We went one day about a month ago (ha ha ha) to have a little fun (ah ha) in Mexico.
We ended up in a gambling spot (ha ha ha) where the liquor flowed and the dice were hot.

Chorus:
So, here we are in the Tijuana jail. Ain`t got no friends to go our bail.
So, here we`ll stay `cause we can`t pay. Just send our mail to the Tijuana jail.

I was shooting dice, raking in the dough (long green) and then I heard a whistle blow.
We started to run when a man in blue said, "Senor, come with me `cause I want you."

(Chorus)

Just five hundred dollars and they`ll set us free. I couldn`t raise a penny if they threatened me.
I know five hundred don`t sound like much (cheap), but just try to find somebody to touch.

(Chorus, twice)
