[Intro]
G  C  D  G

The crops are all in and the Cpeaches are Grotting
The oranges are packed in their Dcreosote Gdumps
They're Cflying them back to the GMexican border
It takes all their money to Dwade back aGgain
[Chorus]

Adios Dmi amigos, GJesus y Maria
You Cwon't have a name when you Gride the big airplane
All they will call you will Dbe 'DeporGtee'C  D  G  
[Verse 2]
My father's own father, he Cwaded that Driver
They took all the money he Dmade in his Glife
My Csisters and brothers come Gwork in the fruit trees
Rode that truck till they Dwent down and Gdied
[Verse 3]
Some of us are illegal and Cothers not Gwanted
Our work contract's out and we Dhave to move Gon
CSix hundred miles to the GMexican border
They chase us like rustlers, like Doutlaws, like Gthieves
[Chorus]

You Cwon't have a name when you Gride the big airplane

The sky plane caught fire over CLos Gatos Gcanyon
A fireball of thunder that Dshook all the Ghills
Who are Call these dear friends, Gscattered like dry leaves
The radio says, "They are Djust deporteGes"
[Verse 5]
Is this the best way we can Craise our good Gorchards?
Is this the best way we can Dgrow our good Gcrops?
To Cdie and be scattered, to Grot on my topsoil
And be called by no name exDcept "DeporGtees"?

CGoodbye to my Juan, goodGbye Rosalita
Adios Dmi amigos, GJesus y Maria
You Cwon't have a name when you Gride the big airplane
