Lonestar - A Week In Juarez Lyrics
(phil barnhart/sam hogin/jim mcbride)His name was travis, hers was vanessaTwo texas kids from west of odessaYoung love and lust defy rational thinkinThey were hotter than an oil field on fireWhen youre that young everythings crucialYou dont wait around for parental approvalSo he asked the question and she answered yesThey jumped in his truck and tore out for juarezThey had an informal wedding south of the borderGot a room with a view for three bucks and a quarterOn a mexican night you dont care what might lie aheadThey had a wonderful week in juarezNow, when the bottom fell out of his chosen vocationThey were too broke to move to a greener locationBills you cant pay put a strain on devotionThey decided to just call it quitsWell, it might have been luck or divine interventionBut on the way to the lawyer divorce wasnt mentionedHe said I still love you, she looked at himAnd said I know a great way to start over againThey had an informal wedding south of the borderGot a room with a view for three bucks and a quarterOn a mexican night you dont care what might lie aheadThey had a wonderful week in juarezHis name was travis, hers was vanessaTwo texas kids from west of odessa
