Intro
Verse 1
The Crops Are All In And The Peaches Are Rotting
The Oranges Are In The Creosote Dumps
They're Flying 'Em Back To That Mexican Border
To Take All Their Money And Wade Back Again
Chorus
Goodbye, My Juan, Farewell, Rosalita
Adios, Mis Amigos, Jesús Y Maria
You Won't Have A Name When You Ride The Big Airplane
All They Will Call You Will Be Deportees
Verse 2
My Father's Own Father, He Waded That River
They Took All The Money He Made In His Life
It's Six Hundred Miles To That Mexican Border
They Chase Us Like Rustlers, Like Outlaws, Like Thieves
Chorus
Goodbye, My Juan, Farewell, Rosalita
Adios, Mis Amigos, Jesús Y Maria
You Won't Have A Name When You Ride The Big Airplane
All They Will Call You Will Be Deportees
Interlude
Verse 3
The Sky-Plane Caught Fire At Los Gatos Canyon
A Fireball Of Lightning, It Shook All Our Hills
Who Are These Comrades Who Are Scattered Like Dry Leaves?
Radio Tells Us They're Just Deportees
Chorus
Goodbye, My Juan, Farewell, Rosalita
Adios, Mis Amigos, Jesús Y Maria
You Won't Have A Name When You Ride The Big Airplane
All They Will Call You Will Be Deportees
