Greg Johnson contacted me and asked if I would like to collaborate with him on a song. I assumed incorrectly it turned out, that he would be singing it since he has one of the best voices on the forum. He really wanted my take on it so I gave it a shot. I should make this very clear that the majority of this write was Greg’s. We hope everyone enjoys it. Tom

I’ll Take Mexico

I’m finally leaving, gonna make a run
I’m cashing out Gonna sell this dump

Pack my truck and go
Down to Mexico

Don’t check my Facebook, I won’t post
Gonna try a new look, turn into a ghost
i know where to go
I'll take Mexico

They’ll know me there as the guero
Underneath the big sombrero
Nice and slow
I'll take Mexico





They dream of California, the golden state
They can come up north and take my place
Take my share of gold
I’ll take Mexico

I’ve lost my way, I’ve lost control
Gonna make a break before I lose my soul
i know where to go
I'll take Mexico

They’ll know me there as the guero
Underneath the big sombrero
Nice and slow
I'll take Mexico


I’m hoping for a leap of faith it’s the place we need to be
not knowing if you’ll jump on board makes it hard for me to leave

So, come on baby, be my only one
Leave this northern nightmare for the southern sun
Pack your stuff and go
Down to Mexico

We’ll be loving and living life so well
What we left behind can just go to hell
like I told you so
Let’s take Mexico



They’ll know us as the gueros
Underneath the big sombreros
Nice and slow
Let’s take Mexico
