Going down a road, life will change, we could live and you shall see
The heavy sounds of guns, I fear back to the migra, oh no!
Led on by a Pollero we go, scared to death and about to pee and flee
And every day Joe, I go with no cash on tow

My friend got caught, the child was shunned, and my wife shot down
Still, a dream I see, and it shall be
An impending breakdown follows, but I have gotten to town
A new start I foresee

With my will and them watching over me
I shall bring them happiness
In this new life, to them, I must bend a knee
In an act of selflessness, the gringo adopts me with tenderness

As a slave I shall work, to earn my place and a dime
Looked down by blue blood, I gain them sympathy
A lifetime has passed, my new self is now full-time
With no regrets, I seek this prison's key

Legally blue but with no papers to speak of
Fifteen years in this world
I am like a mourning dove caged in this labor I love
The American dream, blurred like a dreamworld
