What's a Simple Man to Do? - Steve Earle (史提夫·厄尔)[00:00:00]
Dear Graciela I'm writin' this letter[00:00:14]
Deep in the night and I'm all alone[00:00:17]
It's nearly breakin' my heart to tell you[00:00:20]
I'm so far away from home[00:00:23]
I know I said I'd never cross the border[00:00:27]
I know I promised to return to you[00:00:30]
But I lost my job in the maquiladora[00:00:33]
What's a simple man to do [00:00:36]
I met a man in Tijuana[00:00:54]
Said he had a job for me to do[00:00:56]
Standin' on a corner in San Diego[00:00:59]
With a pocketful of red balloons[00:01:03]
All I wanted was a little money[00:01:06]
All I needed was a week or two[00:01:09]
I never even saw the police comin'[00:01:12]
What's a simple man to do [00:01:16]
Tell my mamma that I said I'm sorry[00:01:45]
I know she didn't bring me up this way[00:01:48]
Ask if she could light a candle for me[00:01:51]
Pray that I'll come home someday[00:01:54]
Oh Graciela won't you please forgive me[00:01:58]
I never meant to bring this shame to you[00:02:01]
I lost my job in the maquiladora[00:02:04]
What's a simple man to do[00:02:07]
