Running For The Border
by Dire Straits
We were standing at the border
Waiting for the man to come
We didn't have a problem
Till he invented one
Waiting for the man to come
We didn't have a problem
Till he invented one
He said take it easy, take it slow
No one moves
Till I say so
No one moves
Till I say so
Running for the border
Down in Mexico
Down in Mexico
We made it to Chihuahua
With the setting sun
The fans were going crazy
Everyone had fun
With the setting sun
The fans were going crazy
Everyone had fun
He said take it easy, take it slow
We've got all day
We'll make the show
We've got all day
We'll make the show
Running for the border
Down in Mexico
Down in Mexico
We met the Federales
They wouldn't go away
So we gave them lots of money
It was all our fuckin' pay
They wouldn't go away
So we gave them lots of money
It was all our fuckin' pay
They said take it easy, take it slow
No one moves
Till I say so
No one moves
Till I say so
Running for the border
Down in Mexico
Down in Mexico
