The Immigrant   as sung by Merle Haggard  Submited by Ken Skelton


The Immigrant     As sung by Merle Haggard

American Ranching   consists of a mansion
Where illegal immigrant  do much of the labor by hand
They sneak em thru customs  Till time comes to bust em
Then haul em back over the border  to their own native land
With a ragged Sombrero  and not much Dinero
They'll be back again   When the Rio Grande's way down low
So Border Patroller     don't stop the stroller
Cause the Illegal Immigrant    is helping America grow

Chorus
Viva La Mexico    Go where they let you go
And do what you can for the land
Take home Dinero   And buy new Sombrero
And come back again when you can
(Music)

What makes a gringo    Your smart aleck lingo
When you stole this land from the Indian way back when
Don't he remember   the big money lender
That put him a lien  where his pencil had been
The almighty peso     That gives him the say so
To dry up the River   Whenever there's crops to bring in
Such a good neighbor   To take all his Labor
Till they need him again
(Chorus)
