Down in Mexicali 
There's a crazy little place that I know 
Where the drinks are hotter, than the chili sauce 
And the boss is a cat named Joe 

 [bad word]  
He wears a red bandana 
Plays a cool piana (piano is pronounced piana in this song) 
In a honky tonk, down in Mexico 
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache 
In honky tonk, down in Mexico 

Well, the first time that I saw him 
He was sittin on a piano stool 
I said "Tell me man, when does the fun begin?" 
He just winked his eye and said "Man, be cool." 

 [bad word]  
He wears a red bandana 
Plays a cool piana 
In a honky tonk, down in Mexico 
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache 
In a honky tonk, down in Mexico 

In Mexico... 

All of a sudden in walks a chick 

In Mexico... 

Joe starts playin on a latin kick 

In Mexico... 

Around her waist she wore three fishnets 

In Mexico... 

She started dancin with the castanets 

In Mexico... 

I didn't know just what to expect 

In Mexico... 

She threw her arms around my neck 

In Mexico... 

We started dancin all around the floor (In Mexico...) 
Until she did a dance I never saw before

So if you're south of the border 
I mean down in Mexico 
And you wanna get straight 
Man, don't hesitate 
Just look up a cat named Joe 

 [bad word]  
He wears a red bandana 
Plays a cool piana 
In a honky tonk, down in Mexico 
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache 
In a honky tonk, down in Mexico 

[Spoken by Carl Gardner:] 

 [bad word] esta usted senorita  [bad word] with me to the border, south of the border, that is
In Mexico, yeah in Mexico 
You can get your kicks in Mexico 
 [bad word] with me [bad word] with [bad word] with me, crazy, yeah
