   He's on the run near El Paso

2. He was a Mexican boy with a Mexican smile
   And he drank a little tequila
   He was a Mexican boy in a Mexican town
   And oh how he loved his young senorita
   
   Now and then he'd cross the Rio Grande
   And he'd come back a wanted hunted man
   And his Mexican girl was his Mexican prize
   And that girl was his girl that pretty Mexican girl that died
   
R: She had Mexican blood (2x)

3. He was a cowboy's boy and a cowboy's son
   And on his side he had a gun
   He was a cowboy's boy, he was the law
   He was out looking for someone
   
   That night he rode into town
   The Mexican boy tried to gun him down
   That's when his heart broke up inside 'cause lying on the ground
   Was his girl that pretty Mexican girl, she died

R: She had Mexican blood
   He loved her and she loved him
   And when he lost her
   Oh how it hurt him
   He loved her I seen it the night she died
   That's when he lost her
   Now his heart is broken
   He loved her and she loved him
   And when he lost her he lost everything
