[00:17.17] The crops are all in, the peaches are rotting
[00:24.25] The oranges piled in their creosote dumps
[00:29.30]
[00:31.12] Theyre flying us back to the mexican border
[00:36.14]
[00:37.08] To pay all our money just to wade back again
[00:42.05]
[00:44.38] Some of us are illegal and some are not wanted
[00:48.97]
[00:51.54] Our work contracts out and we have to move on
[00:55.83]
[00:58.98] 600 miles to that mexican border
[01:03.36]
[01:04.94] chase They us like outlaws, like thieves on the run
[01:09.59]
[01:11.80] Goodbye to my juan, good-bye rosalita
[01:17.02]
[01:17.59] Adios mis amigos, jesus y maria
[01:23.17]
[01:23.80] You wont have a name when you ride the big airplane
[01:29.04]
[01:31.38] All they will call you will be deportee
[01:39.41]
[01:43.13] The sky plane caught fire over los gatos canyon
[01:47.81]
[01:50.20] A fireball of lightning that shook all the hills
[01:54.98]
[01:57.30] Who are these friends now all scattered like dry leaves?
[02:02.59]
[02:04.67] The radio says they are just deportees
[02:10.77]
[02:13.29] Goodbye to my juan, good-bye rosalita
[02:18.96] Adios mis amigos, jesus y maria
[02:24.13]
[02:24.76] You wont have a name when you ride the big airplane
[02:30.58]
[02:32.59] All they will call you will be deportee
[02:40.71]
[02:50.02] We died in your hills, we died in your deserts
[02:54.96]
[02:57.16] We died in your valleys and we died on your plains
[03:01.90]
[03:04.54] We died neath your trees and we died in your bushes
[03:09.58]
[03:10.58] Both sides of the river, we died just the same
[03:15.87]
[03:17.82] Is this the best way we can grow our big orchards?
[03:22.54]
[03:25.06] Is this the best way we can grow our good fruit?
[03:29.88]
[03:32.45] To fall like dry leaves and to rot on the topsoil
[03:37.49] And be called by no name except
[03:42.35]
[03:43.30] Deportees
[03:46.82] Goodbye to my juan, good-bye rosalita
[03:52.68] Adios mis amigos, jesus y maria
[03:58.01]
[03:58.89] You wont have a name when you ride the big airplane
[04:04.12]
[04:06.70] All they will call you will be deportee
[04:14.54]
[04:15.42] Goodbye to my juan, good-bye rosalita
[04:21.52] Adios mis amigos, jesus y maria
[04:25.51]
[04:27.34] You wont have a name when you ride the big airplane
[04:32.35]
[04:34.87] All they will call you will be deportee
