A Week In Juarez

(Phil Barnhart/Sam Hogin/Jim McBride)His name was Travis, hers was VanessaTwo Texas kids from west of OdessaYoung love and lust defy rational thinkin'They were hotter than an oil field on fireWhen you're that young everything's crucialYou don't wait around for parental approvalSo he asked the question and she answered yesThey jumped in his truck and tore out for JuarezThey had an informal wedding south of the borderGot a room with a view for three bucks and a quarterOn a mexican night you don't care what might lie aheadThey had a wonderful week in JuarezNow, when the bottom fell out of his chosen vocationThey were too broke to move to a greener locationBills you can't pay put a strain on devotionThey decided to just call it quitsWell, it might have been luck or divine interventionBut on the way to the lawyer divorce wasn't mentionedHe said I still love you, she looked at himAnd said I know a great way to start over againThey had an informal wedding south of the borderGot a room with a view for three bucks and a quarterOn a mexican night you don't care what might lie aheadThey had a wonderful week in JuarezHis name was Travis, hers was VanessaTwo Texas kids from west of Odessa
