What Am I Doing Hanging Around

Just a loud mouth

Yankee, I went down to

MexicoI didn't have much time to spend, about a week or so

I lightly took advantage there of a girl who loved me so

I found myself a-thinkin' when my time had come to go

What am I doin' hangin' 'round?

I should be on that train and gone

I should be ridin' on that train to

San Antone

What am I doin' hangin' 'round?

She took me to the garden just for a little walk

I didn't know much

Spanish and there was no time for talk

She told me that she loved me not with words but with a kiss

I found myself a-thinkin' of some ol' train

I could not miss

What am I doin' hangin' 'round?

I should be on that train and gone

I should be ridin' on that train to

San Antone

What am I doin' hangin' 'round?

It's been a year or so and

I want to go back again

And if I had the money,

I'd ride the same old train

But I guess your chances come but once and

I sure have missed mine

Until I find myself a-thinkin' when

I hear some whistle cryin'

What am I doin' hangin' 'round?

I should be on that train and gone

I should be ridin' on that train to

MexicoWhat am

I doin' hangin' 'round?
