The lightCs of LaredCm7o dance on the water
AndF shine in a Cyoung man?s eyes.
He staCnds on the border
And dCm7reams of EmparadFise.
He?Cs heard craCm7zy stories of how people live
OveFr in theCm7 promise Dmland.
He heCard they eCm7at threeF mealsC a day
Am7Just acroGss tChe Rio Grande.
He?s got a wife name Maria, a baby named Rose.
And another one to feed on the way.
Two willing hands
That couldn?t find work today.
He stares at the river and curses the future
That he can?t understand.
He knows the child would have a chance
Just across the Rio Grande.
It?s oCn - lGy a riCver
ThaFt?s notC so deep or wide.
A bCoy can throw a stoAm7ne across
And rFeach the otheGr side.
It?s jCust some muGddy wateCr
CutFting through Dmthe land,
But a Cman can maCm7ke a dreaFm comCe true
(Sometimes it seems like God must live)
Am7Just acroGss tChe Rio Grande.
The lights of Laredo dance on the water
And shine in a young man?s eyes.
He stands on the border
And dreams of paradise.
He?s heard crazy stories of how good life is
Over in the promise land.
And sometimes it seems like God must live
Just across the Rio Grande.
