Lyrics
I went down to Mexico
I had a good time
I drank some tequila
I felt mighty fine
I learned to speak Spanish
I made lots of friends
Yo bebo tequila
Yo estoy muy bien
But then it was morning
The fiesta did end
I woke up much later
To myself I said
Donde esta mi cabeza
Mi cabeza no esta aqui
Donde esta mi cabeza
Mi cabeza no esta aqui
I went up to Russia
I had a good time
I drank lots of vodka
I felt mighty fine
I learned to speak Russian
I made lots of friends
Pila vodku dazhe
Kak fsye pod kaniets
Chorus
I went over to Japan
I had a good time
I drank lots of sake
I felt mighty fine
I learned to speak Japanese
I made lots of friends
Osake takusan nonda
Dakara cho gokigen
Chorus
Everybody now!
Chorus
Ole!
