Oh come on ya'll "Mexican Blackbird" is a hallmark song in the definitative old school blues/rock style that ZZ Top made famous. And if you lived in Texas you'ld know there is nothing politically incorrect about it - it's just another great song built on fact. Now come on and lets "drive that old Chrysler down to Mexico boys"! So you guys can lighten up and have some fun!!!

I agree with bigkazz. I live in south Texas and I've been to Boystown in Mexico and can personally attest to the fact that, "Mexican Blackbird" is likely a true story.

What about the ZZ Top song "LaGrange." This is one of the most popular whorehouse songs in the state of Texas and it's about an actual whorehouse known as the Chicken Ranch. There was even a movie made about it called, "The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas." YeHa!
