Tommy the Canexican Vancouver dwelling Mexican
G                                C                 C7
Staying with his next of kin and writing those bad checks again
F                                  C
Old Hudson he protects his men but makes them scrub those decks again

A mad first mate stands next to him it's Tommy the Canexican

(Verse)
Am                        C
Traveling around with his moose and donkey he's

A dashing mix but get him wrong cause he's

Tommy the Canexican

He likes hockey and he likes soccer
He thinks real slow but a really fast talker
Selena's long gone but Celine needs a stalker like
Tommy the Canexican

Got a brother jose and another named Darryl
One wears a poncho the other worn apparrel
Both sing a Spanish "Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald" for
Tommy the Canexican

One likes Dos Equis the other likes Molsens
One liked Nader the other Pat Paulson
Both have a crush on those twins called the Olsens
Must be cause they're Canexican

(Chorus)
Tommy The Canexican Vancouver dwelling Mexican
Staying with his next of kin and writing those bad checks
Ferrigno showed his pecs to win imagine if he flexed at him
The Yukon becomes Texas when there's Tommy The Canexican

(La Cucaracha riff)
C     C     G     C

He eats tacos and he eats bacon he's
5 degrees removed from actor Kevin Bacon
He's got seven sisters but all of them are taken by
Tommy the Canexican

He's got no trouble going south of the border but
Crossing to the South he needs a court order
A foosball table anybody got a quarter, ask
Tommy the Canexican

(Chorus)
Tommy the Canexican Vancouver dwelling Mexican
Buys his old dog Rex, a gin but a good canine rejects a sin
A fat man goes off Dexatrim and gets a bad complex again
He might squeeze in his Lexus and there's Tommy the Canexican

(Aye, yi, yi, yi.....)
C     F     F     C



He front a 5 piece from North of Seattle
Stuffed em in a van and drove em like cattle
Outside Toronto they heard something rattle so they
Rented a VW van again


He likes girl drinks with a garnish and umbrella
He'll cut himself off when he turns greenish-yellow
He'll pass you the check what a really swell fella that
Tommy the Canexican

                    TEQUILA!!!!

A cute little brown canuck singing sensation really
Stands out in the church congregation
Confuses the hell out of U.S. Immigration
Just cuz he's Canexican

(Opening of Star-Spangled Banner riff)

His family up north has snow that's the truest
Fm
His family down south has skies that are bluest

They'd be a lot closer if it weren't for the U.S.

Poor Tommy the Canexican

Canada's dollar is dropping real low
         C
But it's still doing better than the old peso

If Menudo ever signed with B.T.O.
                   C                               Bb
