Avenida Revolucion Songtext
von Chickenfoot

Hey you

Rio Grande crawling with desperation
Hard drugs linin′ the gunny sack
The air is thick with perspiration
A new life waits for the wetback

Crossing the borderline
Into the fire

Now this is where Juan left his family
You can still smell the blood in his tracks
Yeah, and this is where we found the baby
Oh, from here there ain't no turnin′ back

Crossing the borderline
Into the fire
Crossing the borderline
Into the fire


Import, transport, exportation
Rights of nations, exploited salvation
Damnation under one God's fixation
Without deportations, prejudice with limitations

Yeah, Avenida Revolution
Nogales, Tiajuana, Mexicali, Juarez
We got flowers, crosses and no solution
Oh, stay close and do what mommy says
What mommy says, mommy says

We're crossing the borderline
Into the fire
Crossing the borderline
Into the fire

Crossing the borderline, yeah, yeah
Into the fire, hey, hey, hey you

Crossing the borderline, hey you
Crossing the borderline
Into the fire, hey you, hey, hey, hey you

Bullets, tear gas, barbed wire fences
Thirsty dogs, sun, sandy trenches
Night crawling human, insects breeding
Feet, hands, arms, backs still bleeding
