American ranching consists of a mansion Where illegal immigrants do much of the labor by hand They sneak 'em through customs till time comes to bust 'em Then haul 'em back over the border to their own native land
With the ragged sombrero and not much dinero They'll be back again when the old Rio Grande's down low Border patroller, don't stop the stroller 'Cause Mexican immigrant is helping America grow
Viva La Mexico, go where they let you go Do what you can for the land Take home dinero and buy new sombrero And come back again when you can
What makes a gringo your smart aleck lingo When he stole this land from the Indian men, way back when Don't he remember the big money lender That put him a lien parked where his pencil had been
The almighty peso that gives him the say so To dry up the river whenever there's crops to bring in Is this a good neighbor, to take all his labor To chase him back over the border till he's needed again
Viva La Mexico, go where they let you go Do what you can for the land Take home dinero and buy new sombrero And come back again when you can
