father says head down

we don't want them finding you

mother says practice now

all the words you know



oh Arizona's burning

they say the fence turned round

now the razor wire keeps us out



mother says with luck

we'll sleep under a roof tonight

father says in the truck

we'll be crushed in tight



oh Chicago don't forget me

as the miles between us grow

keep the maple tree carved

with the name of my love

the hills we would sled race down

Lake Michigan stay endless and painted in sky

goodbye



Mother says years ago

the whole world was ours to rule

father says let it go

those days are gone for good



all the signs read no gringo

but somehow we'll find our way

maybe waiting at dawn by the factory doors
