The Road To Ensenada Lyrics by Lyle Lovett

The Road To Ensenada Lyrics

    As i lay sick and broken
    Viva mexico
    My eyes just won't stay open
    And i dream a dream of home
    I dream a dream of home

    Where there's coffee on the table
    And kindness in your hand
    Honey i'll help you when i'm able
    But right now i'm feeling bad
    Right now i'm feeling bad

    Listen to your heart that beats
    And follow it with both your feet
    And as you walk and as you breathe
    You ain't no friend to me
    You ain't no friend to me

    The road to ensenada
    Is plenty wide and fast
    If you head south from tijuana
    Then i'll see you at last
    I'll see you at last

    But my eyes they open slowly
    And they look around the room
    The old man he seems worried
    And there ain't no sign of you
    There ain't no sign of you

    Listen to your heart that beats
    And follow it with both your feet
    And as you walk and as you breathe
    You ain't no friend of me
    You ain't no friend of me

    You can offer to the righteous
    The good that you have won
    But down here among the unclean
    Your good work just comes undone
    Your good work just comes undone

    The sisters at the borderline
    They're holding out their hands
    They're begging me for something lord
    But i don't understand
    I don't understand

    So it's adios to alvero
    Tell him to stay between the lines
    And if he sees that gabriella girl
    Tell her i'll look her up next time
    Say i'll look her up next time

    Because the road to ensenada
    Is plenty wide and fast
    And this time through tijuana
    Well it won't be my last
    It won't be my last

    Listen to your heart that beats
    And follow it with both your feet
    And as you walk and as you breathe
    You ain't no friend of me
    You ain't no friend of me
    You ain't no friend of me
