Sold my shack in Memphis,
bought me a Chevrolet
Six string in the back, and a bottle of Jack
And I headed down to Mexico way
Chorus
Singing, ooh la la la,
ooh la la la la le
Ooh la la la la la la la, it's a beautiful day
verse 2
Well I picked up a senorita
She was sitting in the golden hay
She says, 'I do not speak a da English'.
I said, 'Baby, there's nothing that you need to say'.
'I can see we're going the same way'.
Chorus
ooh la la la
ooh la la la la le
Ooh la la la la la la la, it's a beautiful day
verse 3
Well we rode into Acapulco
And we sat in the desert sun
I played my guitar, and I smoked a cigar
And I said 'This is where I move on'
Sure she cried but by then I was gone
Chorus
Singing, ooh la la la,
ooh la la la la le
Ooh la la la la la la la, it's a beautiful day
Ooh it's a beautiful day
