F       F       E       E7
 .  ___  .  ___  ___     ___ ___

Don't touch my bag if you please mister customs man
There's a guy with a ticket to Mexico
No he couldn't look much stranger
Walking in the hall with his things and all
Smiling, said he was the Lone Ranger
CHORUS
NOTE: There is an instrumental after this that I do not have the
TAB for - sorry....
There's a woman walking on the moving floor
Tripping on the escalator
There's a man in the line and she's blowing his mind
Thinking that he's already made her
CHORUS
Repeat first verse.
