Deportee (plane Wreck At Los Gatos) Lyrics - Every Song Tells A Story - Johnny Cash & Willie Nelson

Johnny Cash 

The crops are all in, and the peaches are rotten 

The oranges are all packed in the creosote dumps 

They're flying them back to the Mexican Border 

To save all their money, and wade back again 

Johnny Rodriguez 

My father's own father, he waded that river 

Others before him have done just the same 

They died in the hills, and they've died in the valley 

Some went to heaven, without any name 

Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Johnny Rodriguez 

Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye Rosalita 

Adios mi amigo, Jesus and Maria 

You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane 

All they will call you will be "Deportee" 

Johnny Cash 

Some of us are illegal, and others not wanted 

Our work contracts out, and we have to move on 

(Nelson) 

Six-hundred miles to the Mexican Border 

They chase us like rustlers, like outlaws, like thieves 

Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Johnny Rodriguez 

Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye Rosalita 

Adios mi amigo, Jesus and Maria 

You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane 

All they will call you will be "Deportee" 

Johnny Cash 

The sky-plane caught fire, over Los Gatos Canyon 

A fireball a thunder, it shook all the hills 

(Nelson) 

Who are all these dear friends, scattered like dry leaves? 

The radio said they were just deportees 

Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye Rosalita 

(Adios a mi Juan, adios Rosalita) 

Adios mi amigo, Jesus and Maria 

(Adios a mi amigo, Jesus y Maria) 

You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane 

(no tendr un nombre en el aeroplano) 

All they will call you will be "Deportee" 

(le llamarn sern "Deportee") 

Goodbye to my Juan 

Adios a mi Juan 

Goodbye Rosalita 

Adios Rosalita 

Adios mi amegos, Jesus and Maria 

(Adios a mi amigo, Jesus y Maria) 

You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane 

No tendr un nombre en el aeroplano 

All they will call you 

Le llamarn sern 

will be 

va a hacer 

Deportee
