Jim Reeves - Mexican Joe Chords

C                                 G7
South of the border hey I know a lad
                                 C                  (1953)
He's got more fun than anybody's had
                                             G7
He don't got no worry cause he don't got no dough
                                        C
And everybody's wondering bout Mexican Joe



                                       G7
In old Mexico they call him the Rhumba King
                                    C
He leads all the women around on a string
                                     G7
When they go out they get a million thrills
                                          C
But the lovely senoritas wind up with the bills


            (Chorus)
                               
       Dancin' romancin' 
                     G7
       always on the go 

        sun shinin' down 
                     C
        on Mexican Joe



He makes all the night spots all along the bay
People want to see him when he comes their way
He spreads so much joy everywhere he goes 
and everybody shouts Viva la Mexican Joe


He likes to gamble at poker he's an ace 
he's always so lucky with cards at ever face
At winnin' the money he's sure a whiz
But when they win they don't collect cause they don't know where he is


Dancin' romancin' always on the go sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe
Dancin' romancin' always on the go sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe
Well dancin' romancin' always on the go sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe
