Deportee(Plane Wreck At Los Gatos)(LP Version)

Deportee (Plane Wreck At Los Gatos) (LP Version) - Nanci Griffith[00:00:00]

Written by:Martin Hoffman/Woody Guthrie[00:00:02]

The crops are all in[00:00:05]

And the peaches are rotting[00:00:07]

The oranges are stacked[00:00:11]

In their creosote dumps[00:00:13]

They're flying them back[00:00:17]

To that Mexico border[00:00:19]

To pay all their wages[00:00:24]

To wade back again[00:00:26]

Goodbye to you Juan goodbye Rosalina[00:00:29]

Adios mis amigos Jesus and Maria[00:00:36]

You won't have a name[00:00:42]

When you ride the big airplane[00:00:44]

All they will call you[00:00:48]

Will be deportee[00:00:50]

My father's own father[00:01:00]

He waded that river[00:01:03]

They took all the money[00:01:07]

He made in his life[00:01:09]

My brothers and sisters[00:01:13]

Come working the fruit trees[00:01:15]

And they rode on the trucks[00:01:19]

'Til they took down and died[00:01:21]

Goodbye to you Juan goodbye Rosalina[00:01:25]

Adios mis amigos Jesus and Maria[00:01:31]

You won't have a name[00:01:37]

When you ride the big airplane[00:01:39]

All they will call you[00:01:44]

Will be deportee[00:01:46]

Samos illegals[00:01:56]

Y mal recibidos[00:01:58]

Se a caba el contrato[00:02:02]

Y de alli a caminar[00:02:04]

Six hundred miles[00:02:07]

To that Mexico border[00:02:10]

They chase us like outlaws[00:02:14]

Like rustlers like thieves[00:02:16]

Goodbye to you Juan goodbye Rosalina[00:02:20]

Adios mis amigos Jesus and Maria[00:02:25]

You won't have a name[00:02:32]

When you ride the big airplane[00:02:34]

All they will call you[00:02:38]

Will be deportee[00:02:40]

We died in your hills[00:02:50]

And we died in your deserts[00:02:52]

We died in your valleys[00:02:56]

We died on your plains[00:02:58]

We died 'neath your trees[00:03:02]

And we died in your bushes[00:03:04]

Both sides of that river[00:03:08]

We died just the same[00:03:10]

The sky plane caught fire[00:03:14]

Over Los Gatos canyon[00:03:16]

Like a fireball of lightning[00:03:20]

And shook all our hills[00:03:23]

Who are all those friends[00:03:26]

All scattered like dry leaves[00:03:28]

The radio says[00:03:33]

They are just deportees[00:03:34]

Goodbye to you Juan goodbye Rosalina[00:03:38]

Adios mis amigos Jesus and Maria[00:03:44]

You won't have a name[00:03:50]

When you ride the big airplane[00:03:53]

All they will call you[00:03:57]

Will be deportee[00:03:59]

Is this the best way[00:04:09]

We can grow our best orchards[00:04:11]

Is this the best way[00:04:15]

We can grow our good fruit[00:04:16]

To fall like dry leaves[00:04:21]

And rot on my topsoil[00:04:23]

And be known by no name[00:04:26]

Except deportee[00:04:29]

Goodbye to you Juan goodbye Rosalina[00:04:33]

Adios mis amigos Jesus and Maria[00:04:39]

You won't have a name[00:04:45]

When you ride the big airplane[00:04:47]

All they will call you[00:04:51]

Will be deportee[00:04:53]

All they will call you[00:05:03]

Will be deportee[00:05:06]
