《The Line(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Line (Album Version) - Bruce Springsteen (布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀)

[00:00:08] I got my discharge from fort irwin

[00:00:12] Took a place on the san diego county line

[00:00:16] Felt funny bein a civilian again

[00:00:21] Itd be some time

[00:00:24] My wife had died a year ago

[00:00:28] I was still tryin to find my way back whole

[00:00:32] Went to work for the ins on the line

[00:00:37] With the california border patrol

[00:00:42] Bobby ramirez was a ten year veteran

[00:00:48] We became friends

[00:00:50] His family was from

[00:00:52] Guanajuato

[00:00:54] So the job it was different for him

[00:00:58] He said they risk death in the deserts and mountains

[00:01:02] Pay all they got to the smugglers rings

[00:01:06] We send em home and they come right back again

[00:01:11] Carl hunger is a powerful thing

[00:01:17] Well I was good at doin what I was to

[00:01:21] Ld kept my uniform pressed and clean

[00:01:25] At night I chased their shadows

[00:01:29] Thru the arroyos and ravines

[00:01:33] Drug runners farmers with their families

[00:01:37] Young women with little children by their sides

[00:01:41] Come night wed wait out in the canyons

[00:01:45] And try to keep em from crossin the line

[00:01:52] Well the first time that I saw her

[00:01:56] She was in the holdin pen

[00:02:00] Our eyes met and she looked away

[00:02:04] Then she looked back again

[00:02:08] Her hair was black as coal

[00:02:12] Her eyes reminded me of what Id lost

[00:02:16] She had a young child cryin in her arms

[00:02:20] I asked senora is there anything I can do

[00:02:26] Theres a bar in tijuana

[00:02:29] Where me and bobby alongsidedrink

[00:02:30] The same people wed sent back the day before

[00:02:34] She said her name was louisa

[00:02:38] She was from sonora and had just come north

[00:02:43] We danced and I held her in my arms

[00:02:47] And I knew what I would do

[00:02:50] She said she had some family in madera county

[00:02:54] If she her child and younger brother could just get thru

[00:03:00] At night they come across the levee

[00:03:05] In the searchlights dusty glow

[00:03:09] Wed rush em in our broncos

[00:03:13] Force em back down into the river below

[00:03:17] She climbed into my truck

[00:03:21] She leaned toward me and we kissed

[00:03:25] As we drove her brothers shirt slipped open

[00:03:29] And I saw the tape across his chest

[00:03:35] We were just about on the highway

[00:03:38] When bobbys jeep come up in the dust on my right

[00:03:44] I pulled over and let my engine run

[00:03:48] And stepped out into his lights

[00:03:53] I felt myself movin

[00:03:56] My gun restin neath my hand

[00:04:00] We stood there starin at each other

[00:04:04] As off thru the arroyo she ran

[00:04:14] Bobby ramirez he never said nothin

[00:04:18] 6 months later I left the line

[00:04:22] I drifted to the central valley

[00:04:26] And took what work I could find

[00:04:31] At night I searched the local bars

[00:04:36] And the migrant towns

[00:04:39] Lookin for my louisa

[00:04:42] With the black hair fallin down
