phil ochs - bracero (demo) كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
wade across the river, through the rippling shadow waters
steal across the thirsty border, bracero
come bring your hungry body to the golden fields of plenty
sell your soul for half a penny, bracero

[chorus]
for the owners and growers welcome you
to the golden fields of california

[verse 2]
come labor for your mother, for your father and your brother
for your sisters and your lover, bracero
come pick the fruits of yellow, break the flowers from the berries
purple grapes will fill your bellies, bracero

[chorus]
and the owners and growers welcome you
to the golden fields of california

[verse 3]
oh, the sun will bite your body as the dust will dry you thirsty
while your muscles beg for mercy, bracero
and your bones are slowing curving, bending lower than the soil
like the fruit your youth can spoil, bracero
[chorus]
but the owners and growers welcome you
to the golden fields of california

[verse 4]
when the weary night embraces, sleep in shacks that could be cages
they will take it from your wages, bracero
come sing about tomorrow with a jingle of the dollars
and forget your slavery collars, bracero

[chorus]
for the owners and growers welcome you
to the golden fields of california

- phil ochs
