Going To Acapulco - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

I’m going down to Rose Marie’s

She never does me wrong

She puts it to me plain as day

And gives it to me for a song

Well it’s a wicked life but what the hell?

Everybody’s got to eat

And I’m just the same as everybody else

When it comes to scratching for my meat

(Goin' to Acapulco)

Goin' on the run

(Goin' down to see some girl)

Goin' to have some fun

Yeah

Goin' to have some fun

Oh, now, whenever I get up

And can’t find what I need

I just make it down to Rose Marie’s

And get something quick to eat

And it’s not a bad way to make a livin'

And I ain’t complainin' none

For I can plow my plum (?) and drink my rum

And then go on home and have my fun

(Goin' to Acapulco)

Goin' on the run

(Goin' down to see some girl)

Goin' to have me some fun

Yeah

Goin' to have some fun

Now, when someone offers me a joke

I just say no thanks

I try to tell it like it is

And keep myself away from pranks

Like, every time you know when the well breaks down

I just go pump on it some

And Rose Marie, she likes to go to big places

And just set there waitin' for me to come

(Goin' to Acapulco)

Goin' on the run

(Goin' down to see some girl)

Goin' to have some fun

Yeah

Goin' to have some fun
