M-e-x-i-c-o Lyrics by Post Malone ft. Billy Strings

[Verse 1: Post Malone]
I was hangin' 'round in Brooklyn town
With a settle-down-type girl
Her daddy was a diplomat
Who thought he ruled the world
And he was well-connected
He helped me connect the dots
He paid me off to leave
And let's just say he paid a lot

[Chorus: Post Malone & Billy Strings]
I guess it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me
Laid up in the shade of a coconut tree
And love said, Go to Hell
But there's somewhere I'd rather be
So it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me

[Verse 2: Post Malone]
So I took her daddy's money
But I stopped in Vegas first
I met a dancer on the strip
And fell in love with her
We almost tied the knot
When Elvis asked, Any objections?
Her mobster boyfriend busted in with an AK-47

[Chorus: Post Malone & Billy Strings]
Guess it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me
Laid up in the shade of a coconut tree
And love said, Go to Hell
But there's somewhere I'd rather be
So it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me

[Bridge: Post Malone]
I made it south of El Paso
Met a businesswoman there
I knew that she was rich
But how, I didn't care
When the cops kicked in the door
They found a suitcase of cocaine
She took off with the Federale
And I took all the blame

[Chorus: Post Malone & Billy Strings]
I guess it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me
From this jail cell
I can't see one coconut tree
And love said, Go to Hell
And now I can't ever leave
So it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me

[Outro: Post Malone]
So it's M-E-X-I-C-O for me
