Line in the Sand
Listen to full song :
Line in the Sand
Mendoza is his name
Jalisco is his home
His wife is with the angels
He works with mud and stone
Los Estados Unidos
The streets are paved with gold
A dream or an illusion
The border is patrolled
A mark on a map
A line in the sand
Lives in the balance
Along the Rio Grande
The narcos took his village
The Federales took their side
Now blood runs in the gutters
He just wants to survive
A mark on a map
A line in the sand
But he cannot see them
Along the Rio Grande
They will save their children
You would do the same
They will do what must be done
They will feel no shame
La Migra will not stop him
Go ahead and build your wall
It will never be strong enough
His shadow’s just as tall
There’s a mark on a map
Footprints in the sand
A hope and a prayer
Along the Rio Grande
