El Norte Lyrics - After Here Through Midland - Cock Robin

It's a million miles 

A giant place 

Like a work of art 

Amazing, amazing 

Fast cars that cannot move 

Die for a parking space 

Stuck on a carousel 

Crazy, it's crazy 

When you laugh 

Till you cry 

When you laugh 

[Chorus] 

All's well here in El Norte 

Who'd have thought it could be like this 

Big money for a job well done 

I swear to you 

I got a ride from a coyote 

Who sells high on the black market 

So your loved one can be home soon 

So your loved one can be home soon 

Fine women with dress-up clothes 

Say and do anything 

Wake up to work the day 

Tousled and tangled 

Rub shoulders with the downtown gang 

Where the Virgin lives 

Just like a movie star 

Hopeful and graceful 

When she smiles 

Till you laugh 

Till you cry 

[Chorus] 

Maybe I don't understand it 

Maybe I won't try 

But nobody seems too satisfied 

[Chorus]
