BAYONETTE

I tried to tell y’all all the reasons I should go

Not even my mama said she could see me in Mexico

I don’t speak Spanish and I don’t own a gun

I wear sombrero, I’m allergic to the sun

I take all the advice that I can get

But ain’t nobody here tried to kill me yet

I’m incognito cause I don’t know a soul

I search for faces when I go out for a stroll

Sure it gets lonely walking up that hill

But I have a canteen and my neighbors have a grill

We shoot tequila without one regret

And ain’t nobody here tried to kill me yet

I hope he’s okay now, I don’t wish him harm

I wonder if he sold the rest of our farm

I don’t cry now because I know I survived

But I’d like to shoot who said that love ain’t a crime

I might should look into a bayonette

But ain’t nobody here tried to kill me yet

I think about y’all every 5th of May

I celebrate here every other day

Go dancing downtown with a can of mace

And a piñata in the shape of your face

You were my hearts number uno threat

And ain’t nobody here tried to kill me yet

No ain’t nobody here tried to kill me yet

No there ain’t nobody here tried to kill me yet
