Mandarin Lyrics

My happiest memories are Mexico
When you didn't have to go
Why are you so far away?
Sleep down, sleep down, sleep and stay

How much gold is in a ton of dirt?
One whole dollar worth
And if we meet just one time in the year
Does that make me more or less dear?

I don't want you always just my guest
Wrap in my Mexican blanket and rest
You are so sweet to love
But we're never never really together

You're my one the only dear to me
A thousand miles across the sea
You're not here, I'm not there
We're apart and I'm lonely

Let's do some truthful talking
Cause I'm getting tired of walking nowhere;
This framework doesn't work
Kick the dragon, nothing else I'm fired up truck
You're not here, I'm not there
We're apart
