| THEY ALL DIED FOR MEXICO Steve Park and The Redneck Mothers 2010 Battle lines were drawn/while the river ran blood red Soldiers died for heaven’s/expectations in their heads She said “oh, what the hell”, /threw caution to the wind The moon became her lover/while she rode back home again. Chorus: They died for nothing, not for you and me Just an accident of birth Doesn’t anybody see? She became a mother, grandmother farther on War took her father, husband and her son Two died with Villa, while her father died alone They all died for Mexico Granddaughter’s grown and she’s lost her only son A Federale, a drug war that can’t be won Border of Chihuahua and everywhere you go They all died for Mexico Chorus They died for nothing, not for you and me Just an accident of birth Doesn’t anybody see So the young ones line up / There’s nothing else to do The underclass of Mexico / Where the blood don’t run so blue It’s just like what they always say Poor Mexico .. so far from God/ So close to the USA Chorus They died for nothing, not for you and me Just an accident of birth Doesn’t anybody see? |
