《The Illegal Line》歌词

[00:00:00] The Illegal Line - Will Hoge

[00:00:05] Well I must have walked for fourteen days

[00:00:11] All that I could carry and I made my way

[00:00:16] To the new holy land not a grand parade

[00:00:22] Snuck across the border to the U S A

[00:00:27] Didn't take too long for me to find some work

[00:00:33] Just stood there waiting round in the Texas dirt

[00:00:39] And now I lay concrete the way I did back home

[00:00:45] From 6 am until the light is gone

[00:00:50] Then it's back to

[00:00:51] The hotel drink a case of beer

[00:00:56] One for every person that's livin' here

[00:01:01] Four dollars an hour but nobody moans

[00:01:07] Cause it's three fifty more

[00:01:08] Than we can get back home

[00:01:12] Then I send the money back down to my sweet wife

[00:01:18] So she can tell my children 'bout a better life

[00:01:24] Papa's trying hard just to make it fine

[00:01:29] Fifty miles north of that illegal line

[00:01:59] Late one night they came in through the door

[00:02:04] With guns and lights screamin' get on the floor

[00:02:10] They cuffed us up tight and hauled us all away

[00:02:15] Couldn't hardly understand

[00:02:17] A single word they'd say

[00:02:21] Early next mornin' judge drug us in

[00:02:27] He stared us all down just like guilty men

[00:02:32] He said any of you boys got a thing to say

[00:02:38] I asked him what would he do if he was in my place

[00:02:43] He said there's rules boy and this just ain't the way

[00:02:48] And I said sometimes a starvin' family just can't wait

[00:02:55] But he slammed down his gavel now I'm doing time

[00:03:00] Fifty miles north of that illegal line

[00:03:06] Fifty miles north of that illegal line-eeeeee
