Lyrics for I Felt Like a Gringo

A ton of white boy guilt, that's my problem - Obstacle to joy (one reason for drugs) Slept on a mexican beach, slept in trash (American trash) thinking too much can ruin a good time. I asked a mexican who Ran a bar for americans "who won" I said "the election?" he laughed and I felt Like a gringo - we paid for a song and they had fun with us. Why can't you buy A good time? why are there soldiers in the streets? Why did I spend the fourth In someone else's country?
