G D G G
I was
[Verse]
G G D D
Down on the border on some business I'd rather not mention
Em Em C C
Gettin' involved with a woman was not my in-tention but then
G D
She came along just out walking her dog and I
Em C
Loved her before I'd even met her I guess
D7 D7 G G
Sometimes intentions can change sometimes not for the better well the
[Verse]
G G D D
Dog didn't like me I guess he knew where I was headin'
Em Em C C
He bit my hand when he carried the rings at our weddin' mari-
G D
achis played and we sang and we swayed but they're
Em C
Right when they say love is blind 'cos in a
D7 D7 G G*
Month she was gone and she only left one thing be-hind
[Chorus]
C G D G
Now I got a Mexican dog I can't say his name he don't come when I call
C G
When he's not bitin' me he's lickin' his balls and I
Em C
Hate him right down to his fur but
Em `C `D G G
All I got left of her is this Mexican dog so I
[Verse]
G G D D
Thought it might help if I bought him a toy at the store
Em Em C C
He was so grateful he left somethin' for me on my floor I kicked him
G D
Out every night but by the dawn's early light he was
Em C
Back sportin' some brand new smell I'd take him
D7 D7 G G*
Back where he came from but I don't have directions to hell
[Chorus]
C G D G
Now I got a Mexican dog I can't say his name he don't come when I call

When he's not bitin' me he's lickin' his balls and I
Em C
Hate him right down to his fur but

[Verse]
G G D D
I got a new girlfriend who couldn't stop telling me what to do to
Em Em C C
Top it all off she said she thought that little bastard was cute I said hold
G D
On to his leash and wait right here for me and he'll
Em C
Show you some tricks that he knows and I
D7 D7 G G*
Know it was wrong but I showed her a trick of my own
[Chorus]
C G D G
Now she's got a Mexican dog she can't say his name he don't come when she calls
C G
When he's not bitin' her he's lickin' his balls but we're
Em C
Even far as I'm con-cerned 'cos
Em `C `D G G
Now that dog is hers that Mexican dog
[Outro]

Now she's got a Mexican dog she can't say his name he don't come when she calls
C G
When he's not bitin' her he's lickin' his balls and I

Hope she got what she de-served
Em `C `D G D C G
Now that dog is hers that Mexican dog
