Alone in Mexico


I spent 20 years alone. Alone in Mexico
Maybe ya know me

I remember seein' ya, walkin' 'round the sinners
Singin' hymns
Scrapin' at the Amish Innards
Maybe ya know me

Oh why, I can't remember
Maybe ya know me

I can recall ya laughin'
Laughin' at the Sunday Mass
I remember
I remember why I didn't know ya
I remember why I never chose ya
Singin' Midday holy hymns
Alone. I remember rollin' with the ocean. Yeah
Maybe ya know me


Author notes

Original draft:

Momma, Jacob scratched me with his fingers
I got a bad bed blister
I spent 20 years alone. Alone in Mexico
Maybe ya know me

I remember seein' ya, walkin' 'round the sinners
Singin' hymns
Scrapin' at the Amish Innards
Maybe ya know me
Oh why, I can't remember
Maybe ya know me
