Maria — текст песни (Brian Setzer)

The rains never came I saw my land die

Maria was sleeping when I kissed her goodbye

I couldnt stand the sound of my children cryin no more

You get hungry you get mad

A man without hope is a man that turns bad

Ill try my luck in texas adios mexico



Wipe away your tears maria

Theres a better life for us somewhere

Let me see you smile maria

Close your eyes were on our way there



My country was a great one once upon a time

I wish I lived when you didnt need borderlines

Somebody came and took the heart of my people away

Now I aint worried baby come hear what I say

My people gonna rise again fightin someday

Ill be there to see it Ill be there to welcome them home



Wipe away your tears maria

Theres a better life for us somewhere

Let me see you smile maria

Close your eyes were on our way there



I saw texas she looked so fine

I met some other people same story as mine

Laughin and drinkin waitin for the sun to go down

We had life in our eyes as we crossed the border line

Shot six good men without tellin them why

How could anybody steal the only thing a man has left



Wipe away your tears maria

Theres a better life for us somewhere

Let me see you smile maria

Close your eyes were on our way there
