Rick Trevino feat. Flaco Jimenez - I Am a Mexican

I Am a Mexican

I am one more lonely man
So far away from home
Day after day on my knees
I work my hands to the bone
All of my sweat and my tears
Water her crops and fields
But she's only seeing one thing
Whenever she looks at me

I am a Mexican
God bless America
She says my back is wet
I say, "It's only sweat"
I run from la migra
Por mi familia
A Made In America man
I am a Mexican

She's always angry at me
And I'm so much trouble
She can call me illegal
But I am no criminal
Now all that I hear her say
Is, "Go back to Mexico"
But what would she do without me
If I should ever go?

I am a Mexican
God bless America
She says my back is wet
I say, "It's only sweat"
I run from la migra
Por mi familia
A Made In America man
I am a Mexican

I run from la migra
Por mi familia
A Made In America man
I am a Mexican
