From Down South, Mexico Way

by Joe Cramer

She hailed from down south, in old Mexico
and had told me, that was the way to go.
I had asked for una cerveza mas fina, a beer,
guess she thought that was queer.
But instead, she simply walked away
with little or nothing else to say.
I strolled the streets of Nuevo Laredo
walking around quietly, and ever so slow.
Upon a straw market I chanced
but barely glanced
among the wares.
Guess I simply didn't care.
Later that night I happened upon a bar
and just wanted to see how far
my nada pesos would take me.
Who knew that the show was free.
