(IMO the best cover on YouTube is Dolly Parton's) The crops are all in and the peaches are rotting The oranges are piled in their creosote dumps They're flying you back to the Mexico border To pay all your money to wade back again
(Chorus) Good bye to my Juan, farewell Rosalia Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane All they will call you is just deportes My father's own father he waded that river They took all the money he made in his life It's 600 miles to the Mexican border And they chased him like rustlers, like outlaws like thieves The airplane caught fire over Los Gatos Canyon A great ball of fire that shook all the hills Who are these friends who are scattered like dry leaves? The radio said "They're just deportes" Is this the best way we can grow our big orchards? Is this the best way we can grow our good crops? To fall like dry leaves and rot on our topsoil And be known by no name except deportes (Chorus) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
