There is this Tarantino movie where at some point a girl performs a striptease for Kurt Russel. The song is called Down in Mexico, and who has listened to it has never forgotten it. 

Dear Marco, I liked that song so much that I have been listening to it over and over again. It talks about a descent to an unknown place called Mexico, where some wild and adventurous things happen to you, like meeting women and mysterious musicians. To go to Mexico means to get out of the shell we built around us and explore a place “south of the border” where rules don’t exist. All of that is both dangerous and fascinating. 

Now, I don’t exactly know where my Mexico is and where is yours, but I hope that one day, soon perhaps, we can meet there and spend some time together, like the old times. 

See you soon, gringo!

Down in the Mexicali
There's a crazy little place that I know
Where the drinks are hotter than the chili sauce
And the boss is a cat named Joe

He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash and a black moustache
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico

Well, the first time that I saw him
He was a-sittin' on a piano stool
I said a-tell me dad, when does the fun begin?
He just winked his eye and said man, be cool

He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash and a black moustache
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico

All of a sudden in walks this chick
(In Mexico)
Joe starts playing on a Latin kick
(In Mexico)
Around her waist she wore three fishnets
(In Mexico)
She started dancin' with the castanets
(In Mexico)
I didn't know just what to expect
(In Mexico)
She threw her arms around my neck
(In Mexico)
We started dancin' all around the floor
And then she did a dance I never saw before

So if you're south of the border
I mean down in Mexico
And you wanna get straight
Man, don't hesitate
Just look up a cat named Joe

He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
In a honky-tonk down in Mexico

Yeah, como esta usted senorita? Ha-ha-ha
Hey, come with me to the border, south of the border, that is
In the Mexico, yeah in Mexico
Yeah, you can get your kicks in Mexico
Come with me baby, come with me
Come with me, yeah, crazy, ha-ha-ha
Yeah
