Bracero (Live) - Phil Ochs (菲尔·奥克斯)[00:00:00]

Wade into the river [00:00:04]

Through the rippling shallow watter[00:00:08]

Steal across the thirsty border bracero[00:00:12]

Come bring your hungry bodies[00:00:19]

To the golden fields of plenty[00:00:23]

From a peso to a penny bracero[00:00:27]

Oh Welcome to California[00:00:35]

Where the friendly farmer[00:00:41]

Will take care of you[00:00:45]

Come labor for your mother [00:00:50]

Your father and your brother[00:00:54]

For your sister and your lover bracero[00:00:57]

Come pick the fruit of yellow [00:01:05]

Break the flower from the berry[00:01:08]

Purple grapes will fill your belly bracero[00:01:12]

Oh Welcome to California[00:01:19]

Where the friendly farmer will take care of you[00:01:27]

And the sun will bite your body [00:01:36]

As the dust will draw you thristy[00:01:40]

While your muscles beg for mercy bracero[00:01:43]

In the shade of your sombrero [00:01:51]

Drop your sweat upon the soil[00:01:55]

Like the fruit your youth can spoil bracero[00:01:58]

Oh Welcome to California[00:02:06]

Where the friendly farmer will take care of you[00:02:13]

When the weary night embraces [00:02:23]

Sleep in shacks that could be cages[00:02:27]

They will take it from your wages bracero[00:02:31]

Come sing about tomorrow with a jingle of the dollar[00:02:39]

And forget your crooked collar bracero[00:02:46]

Oh Welcome to California[00:02:54]

Where the friendly farmer will take care of you[00:03:01]

And the local men are lazy [00:03:11]

And they make too much of trouble[00:03:15]

Besides we'd have to pay the double bracero[00:03:18]

But if you feel you're fallin' [00:03:26]

If you find the pace is killing[00:03:30]

There are others who are willing bracero[00:03:33]

Oh Welcome to California[00:03:40]

Where the friendly farmer will take care of you[00:03:48]
