A E I'm going down to Rose Marie's D A She never does me wrong. A E She puts it to me plain as day D A And gives it to me for a song. A A7 It's a wicked life but what the hell D Bm everybody's got to eat A E And I'm just the same as anyone else D Bm When it comes to scratching for my meals Chorus: A D Goin' to Acapulco A G Goin' on the run. A D Goin' down to see soft gut A Bm Goin' to have some fun. Yeah A Goin' to have some fun. Now, whenever I get up And can't find what I need, I just make it down to Rose Marie's and get something quick to eat. It's not a bad way to make a living And I ain't complainin' none. For I can blow my plum and drink my rum And then go on home and have my fun Chorus: Goin' to Acapulco Goin' on the run. Goin' down to see soft gut Goin' to have some fun. Yeah Goin' to have some fun. Now, if someone offers me a joke I just say no thanks. I try to tell it like it is And keep away from pranks. Well, everytime, you know, when the well breaks down I just go pump on it some. Rose Marie, she likes to go to big places And just sit there waitin' for me to come. Chorus: Goin' to Acapulco Goin' on the run. Goin' down to see soft gut Goin' to have some fun. Yeah Goin' to have some fun.
