This post of because of Jennifer Bussey. She love this song and this band. Somehow, her love has rubbed off. They say your friends influence you, and it's true! But luckily, she's a great influence. This is the first song by Jump Little Children that Bussey played for me last semester, and it needs to be passed on. It's called Mexico:

I won't let you go. I won't let you go
Not to Detroit City. Not to Chicago.

And I won't let you go. I won't let you go
Not to Mississippi. Not to Tupelo.

But if you're gonna leave
I'm asking you to please
Go all the way to Mexico.

I won't let you leave. I won't let you leave
Not with all my Django, Emmy Lou and Steve.

I won't let you leave. I won't let you leave
Not with my revival tucked down in the sleeve.

But if you're going to go
Take the ones you gave to me
All the way to Mexico.

All the way to the shore of California Bay and I'll be fine
'Cause I have taken you back for the last time.

And I won't set you free. I won't set you free
Not to say it's over. Come right back to me.

But if you're gonna go
I'm giving you the key
But only if you'll go to Mexico.

All the way to the shore of California Bay and I'll be fine
'Cause I have taken you back for the last time.

All the way to the shore of California Bay and I'll be fine
'Cause I have taken you back for the last time.

So if you're gonna go baby won't you please go all the way to Mexico
All the way to Mexico
