Deportees - Cisco Houston[00:00:00]
The crops are all in and the peaches are rotting[00:00:02]
The oranges are stacked in their creosote dumps[00:00:08]
They're flying them back to that Mexico border[00:00:12]
To pay all their wages to wade back again[00:00:17]
Goodbye to my Juan goodbye Rosalita[00:00:22]
Adios mi amigo Jesus and Maria[00:00:27]
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane[00:00:32]
And all they will call you will be deportees[00:00:37]
My father's own father he waded that river[00:00:45]
They took all the money he made in his life[00:00:50]
My brothers and sisters come working the fruit trees[00:00:55]
And they rode on the trucks till they took down and died[00:01:00]
Goodbye to my Juan goodbye Rosalita[00:01:05]
Adios mi amigo Jesus and Maria[00:01:10]
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane[00:01:15]
And all they will call you will be deportee[00:01:19]
Well some are illegal and some are not wanted[00:01:26]
Our work contract's out and we've got to move on[00:01:31]
Six hundred miles to that Mexico border[00:01:36]
They chase us like outlaws like rustlers like thieves[00:01:41]
Goodbye to my Juan goodbye Rosalita[00:01:46]
Adios mi amigo Jesus and Maria[00:01:51]
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane[00:01:56]
And all they will call you will be deportee[00:02:01]
We died in your hillsand we died on your deserts[00:02:28]
We died in your valleys we died on your plains[00:02:33]
We died 'neath your trees and we died in your bushes[00:02:38]
Both sides of that river we died just the same[00:02:43]
Goodbye to my Juan goodbye Rosalita[00:02:48]
Adios mi amigo Jesus and Maria[00:02:53]
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane[00:02:57]
And all they will call you will be deportee[00:03:02]
The sky plane caught fire over Los Gatos Canyon[00:03:09]
Like a fireball of lightning and shook all our hills[00:03:14]
Who are all these friends all scattered like dry leaves[00:03:20]
The radio says they are just deportees[00:03:25]
Goodbye to my Juan goodbye Rosalita[00:03:30]
Adios mi amigo Jesus and Maria[00:03:35]
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane[00:03:39]
And all they will call you will be deportees[00:03:45]
Is this the best way we can grow our big orchards[00:03:51]
Is this the best way we can grow our good fruit[00:03:56]
To fall like dry leaves and rot on my topsoil[00:04:01]
And be known by no name except deportee[00:04:06]
Goodbye to my Juan goodbye Rosalita[00:04:11]
Adios mi amigo Jesus and Maria[00:04:16]
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane[00:04:21]
And all they will call you will be deportee[00:04:26]
