Intro chords: 1986 found me in Lubbock Hub city of the Lone Star state And it was at the airport lounge that I first kissed her How the hell was I to know my fate She was just nineteen and wild, she had a sexy smile And I was twenty-three going on sixteen And the good times we shared together, Lord knows I?ve known no better But I guess you?d a had to met her to know just what I mean Lubbock couldn?t hold the likes of our love So we took off one night in May We set our sights a just little south of El Paso Made Mexico by the break of day We won some money at the racetrack And she smiled as she laid back In the back seat of that taxi on the road to chase our dreams Fiddle Solo Well, the town of Seragosa is a poor one And a dollar can buy most anything Well, I slipped that judge a wrinkled pair of twenties In exchange for vows and a wedding ring And without any hesitation she signed that wedding declaration And you don?t have to speak Spanish, boys, to know just what that means 1986 is long forgotten, She and I split up and moved apart But the memories that we shared down in old Mexico Will always be alive in my heart Chorus
