Intro:
G
G
The crops are all in and the peaches are rotting
G
The oranges are packed in the creoste dumps
G
They're flying them back to the Mexican border
G
To save all their money and wade back again
D
My father's own father he waded that river
G
Others before him have done just the same
G
They died in the hills and they died in the valleys
G
Some went to heaven with out any names
Chorus:
G
Goodbye to my Juan, good bye Rosalita
G
Adios mi amigos, Jesus y Maria
G
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
G
All they will call you will be Deportee
(Repeat Intro)
G
Some of us are illegal and others not wanted
G
Our work contracts out and we have to move on
G
Six hundred miles to the Mexican border
G
They chase us like outlaws like rustlers, like thieves
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
G
The sky plane caught fire over Los Gatos canyon
G
A fireball of thunder that shook all the hills
G
Who are all these dear friends scattered like dry leaves
G
The radio said they were just Deportees
