Look out the window, there's a new day dawnin'
Buddy, can you pull down the shades?
Thirty-six hours and we're still in Texas
And I haven't made anyone cry
I'm stuck in-between two handcuffed brothers
Señorita, some other time
Fourteen miles to Nuevo Laredo
And the passport still isn't dry
I'm riding the pooch with a jailhouse Muslim
And a man trying out a new name
So pass the hooch, 'cause we all got trouble
But we're one step ahead of the game
Stool-pigeon, poor mountain sideshow professor
Unwed mothеr-to-be
AWOL, immigrant, dog-track cripple
Hop-head, mailbox pridе
Stowaway midget in a picnic basket
Lumber camp flunked out of school
I read them as easy as a ten-cent novel
'Til they all have something to hide
I'm riding the pooch with a jailhouse Muslim
And a man trying out a new name
So pass the hooch, 'cause we all got trouble
But we're one step ahead of the game
I'm riding the pooch with a jailhouse Muslim
And a man trying out a new name
So pass the hooch, 'cause we all got trouble
But we're one step ahead of the game
