Vayan al Norte Lyrics


We never ask for a handout
Or more than our fair share of pay
Downtown you all know where we stand
Out looking for work by the day
You don't ask why our farms were abandoned
Or of our choice between vida y muerte
Or why we would take such a gamble
Por las esperanzas del NorteVayan al Norte, vayan al Norte...From Oaxaca to El Paradero
Survival our deepest desire
From the barbed wire de La Frontera
From the frying pan into the fire
Laying low como ladrones
En una tierra de puertas cerradas
Aun podemos escuchar las voces
De nuestros perdidos amados
Vayan al Norte, vayan al Norte
Digan adios y salgan ahora
Atravesan el rio

Queridos no lloran
Vayan con dios y vayan al NorteNos despertan en medio del sueno
Las caras de nuestros viejos
Saludan con las manos cansadas
Por ultima vez, adios
Y ahora nunca regresaremos
Y pasamos por su mundo como sombras
Pero una vida nueva hacemos
Aqui en las tierras del Norte
Vayan al Norte...Atraviesen el rio
Cantan no lloran
Vayan con dios y vayan al Norte
