Biography:
Bobby Bare (born Robert Joseph Bare on April 7, 1935 in Ironton, Ohio) is an American country music singer and songwriter.
In the fifties after many failed attempts to sell his songs, he finally was signed up with Capitol Records and recorded a few rock and roll songs without much chart success. Just before he was drafted into the Army, he wrote a song called 'The All American Boy' and did a demo for his friend, Bill Parsons, to learn and record it.

Down in Mexico
Chorus:
C G F G F
I'm down in Mexico, had to go,
C B C
Won't be home no more
G F G F
I want mom and dad to know, I miss and love them so
C G C
Though I'll never see them anymore.
C F G C
The day that I turned twenty one I could hardly wait
F G C
To say goodbye to mom and dad and shake the hand of fate
F G C
Fate was with me from the start, until that fateful day
F G C
A big man he took my sweetheart and I took his life away.
Chorus
I stood and watched the man as he fell
And then I heard the policemen's whistle blow
And when I thought about that prison cell
I thought about old Mexico.
