lyrics

I miss the honeys in Honduras, they always knew how to treat me well
I spent 7 weeks in a sailor’s dream, I’ll spend the next four more in jail
And I don’t tell the world I’m Jesus, cause in truth I’m just a man
The only crown I wear fell from the hair of the kings and queens who tried to cut me down
But only wound up cuttin’ me free
So mother tell your children not to grow up anything, like me
I love those cartel girls because they always treat me right
You can try to run ‘em round try to turn ‘em down but you know you ain’t gonna win that fight
Cause their beauty and their grace you won’t be able to decline
I said there's plenty of guns and there's plenty of roses but that girl ain’t no sweet child of mine
She’s a demon in disguise
So mother tell your children don’t get high on your supply
Way down in Mexico I met a man who said
I got a job for you boy and you better use your head
There’s pushin’ and there’s dealin’ and the chicks they come for free
The only choice I had was to accept his final plea
Cause I'm, on the run from the ones with the guns up there in Hollywood
And I wouldn’t wanna dance with the devil if it didn’t feel so good
Cause, up there they don’t care they just wear you down until your body breaks
So I'm living south of the border, and I don’t care how long it takes
Cause all the king’s horses, all the king’s men could never take my heroin
Day and night she holds my hand, my girl always understands
Not even Robin Hood and his merry men, would ever steal my Maid Marian
You know she’s my biggest fan, I love her to the end my friend
She’s an angel in my eyes,
so mother tell your children you’re gonna love her till you die
