letra de mexican home (live) - john prine

[verse 1]
well, it got so hot last night, i swear you couldn’t hardly breathe
heat lightning burned the sky like alcohol
i sat on my porch without my shoes and i watched the cars roll by
as the headlights raced to the corner of the kitchen wall

[chorus]
mama dear, your boy is here, far across the sea
waiting for that sacred coal that burns inside of me
and i feel a storm all wet and warm not ten miles away
approaching my mexican home

[verse 2]
oh my god, i cried, it’s so hot inside you could die in the living room
take the fan from the window, prop the door back with a broom
well, the cuckoo clock has died of shock and thе windows feel no pain
and the air’s as still as the throttle on a funеral train

[chorus]
mama dear, your boy is here, far across the sea
waiting for that sacred coal that burns inside of me
and i feel a storm all wet and warm not ten miles away
approaching my mexican home

[verse 3]
well, my father died on the porch outside on an august afternoon
i sipped bourbon and cried with a friend by the light of the moon
so it’s hurry, hurry, step right up, it’s a matter of life or death
well, the sun’s going down and the moon is just holding its breath
[chorus]
mama dear, your boy is here, far across the sea
waiting for that sacred coal that burns inside of me
and i feel a storm all wet and warm not ten miles away
approaching my mexican home

[refrain]
all approaching my mexican home
all approaching my mexican home
