i left my home in Tamaulipas in Sonoyta i came across there was but 6 of us when we started walking behind the coyote boss
(man's name was Javier, he didn't look right to me. said 'keep on walking get your coke jug')
an old man said please let me go along with you yes i'm old but i'm mighty tough i know the road and maybe i can help you i got good shoes i won't hold you up
1st night we stopped and rested next morning our guide was gone the Sinaloa boy was for retreating the old man said, the mountain's on the right we can't go wrong
but somewhere up on Tenahas Altas, he stumbled and then he fell he begged and he pleaded but we had to leave him lyin on Camino Diablo trail
quicksand i think we lost direction quicksand now we're losin ground quicksand nobody round to help us i think we're sinking down
thought we was getting close to Yuma i heard it's an unfriendly town we just need a cool drink of water even Yuma can't turn a poor boy down then a Dodge Ram truck drove right down on us sayin I'm your vigilante man and i'm here to say your ass just got deported i'm taking you out just as fast as i can he said you might be an old typhoid carrier might be a new drug cartel suppose you been sent by al kayeda sure would like to get our hands on Al
well mister it's 120 degrees back out there it's just me and the boy, the rest are gone i think you'd take more pity on rescue pit bull dogs calll us Charles and Bronson from now on
I always liked its groove when I was a kid, but only now I see the lyrics are downright insurrectionist!
(Lyrics often go right past me; I'm mostly listening to the instruments "and anyway who can understand the words??--with Frank Sinatra you could understand the words!--and they call that music??")
even then they didn't take babies away from their mothers
And if it happens here they'll never come for you Because they'll know you really didn't care

Early every year the seeds are growing Unseen, unheard they lie beneath the ground Would you know before their leaves are showing That with weeds all your garden will abound? If you close your eyes, stop your ears Shut your mouth then how can you know ? For seeds you cannot hear may not be there Seeds you cannot see may never grow In January you've still got the choice You can cut the weeds before they start to bud If you leave them to grow high they'll silence your voice And in December you may pay with your blood So close your eyes, stop your ears, Shut your mouth and take it slow Let others take the lead and you bring up the rear And later you can say you didn't know Every day another vulture takes flight There's another danger born every morning In the darkness of your blindness the beast will learn to bite How can you fight if you can't recognise a warning? Today you may earn a living wage Tomorrow you may be on the dole Though there's millions going hungry you needn't disengage For it's them, not you, that's fallen in the hole It's alright for you if you run with the pack It's alright if you agree with all they do If fascism is slowly climbing back It's not here yet so what's it got to do with you? The weeds are all around us and they're growing It'll soon be too late for the knife If you leave them on the wind that around the world is blowing You may pay for your silence with your life So close your eyes, stop your ears, Shut your mouth and never dare And if it happens here they'll never come for you Because they'll know you really didn't care
