Old Crow Medicine Show
G
(início)
G C G The crops are all in and the peaches are rott'ning, C G The oranges piled in their creosote dumps; C G They're flying 'em back to the Mexican border C G To pay all their money to wade back again G C G My father's own father, he waded that river, C G They took all the money he made in his life; C G My brothers and sisters come working the fruit trees, C G And they rode on the trucks till they took down and died.
Chorus
C G Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye, Rosalita, D G Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria; C G You won't have your names when you ride the big airplane, C G All they will call you will be "deportees"
Verse 2
G C G Some of us are illegal, and some are not wanted, C G Our work contract's out and we have to move on; C G Six hundred miles to that Mexican border, C G They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves. G C G We died in your hills, we died in your deserts, C G We died in your valleys and died on your plains. C G We died 'neath your trees and we died in your bushes, C G Both sides of the river, we died just the same.
Chorus
C G Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye, Rosalita, D G Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria; C G You won't have your names when you ride the big airplane, C G All they will call you will be "deportees"
Verse 3
G C G The sky plane caught fire over Los Gatos Canyon, C G A fireball of lightning, it shook all our hills, C G Who are all these friends, all scattered like dry leaves? C G The radio says, "They are just deportees" G C G Is this the best way we can grow our big orchards? C G Is this the best way we can grow our good fruit? C G To fall like dry leaves to rot on my topsoil C G And be called by no name except "deportees"?
Chorus
C G Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye, Rosalita, D G Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria; C G You won't have your names when you ride the big airplane, C G All they will call you will be "deportees"
Chorus
C G Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye, Rosalita, D G Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria; C G You won't have your names when you ride the big airplane, C G All they will call you will be "deportees" C G G C Yes, all they will call you will be "deportees"
