Verse: D E Down the road a ways iʼve heard said a new dayʼs coming on A D Where the women folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone E Iʼll believe it when i see it and i havenʼt seen it yet B E Donʼt mind me just keep on talking iʼm just looking for my hat Chorus: A E There ainʼt no God in Mexico,ainʼt no way to understand A How that border crossing feeling makes afool out of a man E If iʼd never felt the sunshine then i would not curse the rain A If my feet could fit a railroad track,i guess iʼd been a train Verse: D E Me and Louise Higgins-Botham used to chase across the yard A D Back in 1947 thatʼs when more than times were hard E Well pity me i didnʼt find the line in time like a fool B E In front of God and everybody i politely blew my cool Chorus: A E Ainʼt no God in Mexico,ainʼt no comfort in the king A When youʼre down in Madamoris getting busted by the man E If iʼd never felt the sunshine,Hell i would not curse the rain A If i hadnʼt been railroaded well i guess iʼd been a train
