I was walking in a midnight market
AmC
Through the shanties outside Juarez
AmC
She had a flower in her hair and the band filled the air
FGAmAm
As we danced on the day of the dead
AmC
She said boy don't you know I am Lola
AmC
And I belong to the local cartel
AmGCF
A tear filled her eye as she kissed me goodbye
FGC
And two federales they tossed me in jail
EmFG
Tonight I'm in a Mexican prison
EmFG
My cell mate is making a knife
CF
Oh but all I can think of is her crying eyes
AmGC
And how to make sweet Lola mine
FAmGCC
Oh how to make sweet Lola mine
Verse AmC
I had come there a backpack traveler
AmC
With two crazy Canadian friends
AmC
Billy and Jack, yeah we go way back
FGAmAm
But they laughed and they waved as my paddy wagon left
AmC
I thought well damn ya boys, I'll dream of Lola
AmC
And her big auburn innocent eyes
AmGCF
They can break all my fingers till none of them lingers
FGC
But I'll still make sweet Lola mine
EmFG
Tonight I'm in a Mexican prison
EmFG
My cell mate is making a knife
CF
Oh but all I can think of is her crying eyes
AmGC
And how to make sweet Lola mine
FAmGCC
Oh how to make sweet Lola mine

My cell mate he drew a finger across his throat
FC
I thought dear God this is the end
FGCF
Aw but Billy and Jack they'd bought a burly little ass
FGC
And that donkey broke the bars from that cement
FGC
And with that donkey the three of us we fled
EmFG
Tonight I'm breaking out of a prison
EmFG
Yeah we're making a run for our lives
CF
Oh but all I can think of is her crying eyes
AmGC
And how to make sweet Lola mine
FAmGC
Oh tonight I make sweet Lola mine
AmGC
If we get out of Juarez alive
