1
Well, the sun's settin' on the veranda
2
As the ceilin' fan stirs the air
3
I pour me another a-what I've been drinkin'
4
Sit back in my wicker chair
5
She's still in that big house in Houston
6
Where we tried to find happiness
7
Somehow I know she would not understand it
8
If she could see me like this
9
There's no lawn to mow 'cause the grass doesn't grow
10
People get high every day
11
It's a little bit hotter ya can't drink the water
12
A dollar still goes a long way
13
Tequila is sweet, senoritas are neat
14
And peace of mind is free
15
Yeah, two hundred miles south of the border
16
I found the American dream
17
We thought we'd found it in Houston
18
With the house and the cars and the pool
19
Sometimes people own things, sometimes things own you
20
I won't even bother to write her
21
She'd hate it down here anyhow
22
She can have all the things we had together
23
I won't be needin' them now
24
There's no lawn to mow 'cause the grass doesn't grow
25
People get high every day
26
It's a little bit hotter ya can't drink the water
27
A dollar still goes a long way
28
Tequila is sweet, senoritas are neat
29
And peace of mind is free
30
Yeah, two hundred miles south of the border
31
I found the American dream
32
Yeah, two hundred miles south of the border
33
I found the American dream
