lyrics

Everything’s always the same in this small old town
People in the bars smoking, drinking and talking
Standing there waiting for the next gossip in a row
Like if it was the last bell to ring

There’s no need to be in Mexico
To find plenty of corruption
Doesn’t have to be Jim Crow
To judge on presumption

The river flows downtown there you can get a walk
On these dirty banks where misery’s hiding
Don’t be afraid stranger they’re only country gawks
All their life being misguided

There’s no need to be in Mexico
To find plenty of corruption
Doesn’t have to be Jim Crow
To judge on presumption

In this town …

This town on the border
This town on the border of

Ghost town where desertion becomes haunting
Where empty showcases is a new standard
Everything around collapses and future is daunting
Poverty crawling down the streets like a cancer

There’s no need to be in Mexico
To find plenty of corruption
Doesn’t have to be Jim Crow
To judge on presumption

In this town …

This town on the border
This town on the border of
The border of 3 countries
