Nice and Slow

My man, he fought for Lincoln's Throes
My man, he fought for Lincoln's Throes
When the fighting ceased
he figured it was time to leave
So he took off nice and slow

In Tuxpan he made his home
In Tuxpan he made his home
He drank the golden booze, married this girl from Veracruz
And we took it nice and slow

We farmed there but only debt would grow
We farmed there but only debt would grow
With no money we figured
it was time to leave
So we took off nice and slow

We swam through the Gulf of Mexico
We swam through the Gulf of Mexico
When we finally arrived back through to the American side
We took it nice and slow

We made it into San Anton
We made it into San Anton
In time we had a son
We were ever always on the run
But we took it nice and slow

They called my man jarocho
They called my man jarocho
The authorities mistook
my man for a Mexican crook
Hands up! Take it nice and slow

Nice and slow
Nice and slow
Nice and slow

My man, he was deemed a foe
My man, he was deemed a foe
He said, "baby, please, after they drop this guillotine, go take it
nice and slow"

Can't say I was left all alone
Can't say I was left all alone
The suit was finally passed
I received the inheritance
Now I take it nice and slow
