The Ballad Of Lefty & Juanita

from A Good Wife by Tommy Wiggins

/

lyrics

Drivin’ down to Mexico
Lefty & Juanita go
to take it slow Take it slow
Pack the car, change the oil
C.C. Ryder'sready to roll
Down to Mexico, Baja, Mexico

Winter in the San Juans take's a toll
As the years keep stacking up
they cut down in your soul’
So they’re following the sun
down old Highway One to Mexico

That’s where Lefty & Juanita
in that fine Casita
Arm in arm they’ll greet ‘ya
at that El Molino door
Pale blue wooden door

Throw your old alarm away
Rooster wakes you up every day
to the morning sun
Shinin’ down on everyone

Quiet place for lettin’ go
Todos Santos, Mexico
Where Lefty & Juanita take it slow

Dusty truck is cruisin’ ‘round the town
Speakers on the hood
are shouting’ out what’s goin’ down

So they’re drivin’ down to Mexico
Lefty & Juanita go
to take it slow Take it slow

Yeah, they’re following the sun
down old Highway One
Baja, Mexico
