[Eb] [Bb]
The crops are all in and the lettuce is rotting
piled in their creuse so dumb
They're [Eb] flying back [Bb] to that Mexican [Gm] border
To pay all their money and wait back again
My father's own father, [Eb] he waded [Bb] that river
[Bb] made in his life
and sisters [Bb] came working [Gm] the fruit trees
The crops are all in and the lettuce is rotting
piled in their creuse so dumb
They're [Eb] flying back [Bb] to that Mexican [Gm] border
To pay all their money and wait back again
My father's own father, [Eb] he waded [Bb] that river
[Bb] made in his life
and sisters [Bb] came working [Gm] the fruit trees
