We was headin' out for Spring Break
Cabo Wabo can't wait

Gonna have the time of our lives

But the cooler's running low
So we found a Texaco
G
And we pulled in for another bag of ice
G
She was leanin' on my front hood
Ooh, she was lookin' good
C9
Couple of Coronas in her hand
D
She said, "You're new in town
Let me show you around
G
Mi hermana,
She would love to meet your friend."

Down in Mexico."
G
Well, I knew I was in trouble
When I started seeing double
C9
I was singing with a mariachi band
D
Maria does the rumba,
I'm singing La Bamba
G
Is that a preacher with a Bible in his hand?
G
Well, I woke up in the bed
There's a pounding in my head
C9
Maria says
"Buenos dias, mi amor"
D
And there's a ring on my finger
I swear I don't remember
G
Your Honor, is that grounds for a divorce?
Here goes..
