The Immigrant
Recorded by Johnny Rodriguez
Written by Merle Haggard

G
American ranching consists of a mansion
Bm Am D7
Where illegal immigrant do much of the labor by hand
Am D7
They sneak 'em through customs till time comes to bust 'em
G
Then haul 'em back over the border to their own native land


With a ragged sombrero and not much dinero
G7 C
They'll be back again when the ol' Rio Grande's way down low
G
So border patroller don't stop the stroller
D7 G
Cause the Mexican immigrant is helpin' America grow


Viva La Mexico go where they let you go
D7
And do what you can for the land
Am D7
Take home dinero and buy new sombrero
G
And come back again when you can


What makes a gringo his smart aleck lingo
Bm Am D7
When he stole this land from the Indian man way back when
Am D7
Don't he remember the big money lender
G
That put him a Lincoln parked where his pinto had been


The almighty peso that gives him a say so
G7 C
To dry up the river whenever there's crops to bring in
G
This a good neighbor to take all his labor
D7 G
Then chasing back over the border till he's needed again

Repeat #3 x2
