lyrics

Lying in a creek bed under a Comanche moon
Watching out for headlights going to make the crossing soon
I’ve got a prayer on my breath and a thousand dollars in my jeans
All of my saving to be paid to El Coyote

On the Other Side
On the Other Side
On the Other Side
There’s a better life waiting for me
Somewhere on the Other Side

Its a wide swift river, mi amigo, better learn to swim
Gotta run fast on the highway or you’re gonna get hit
Keep your ass down or your bound to get a bullet in it
You don’t want to wind up another dead Mexican

On the Other Side
On the Other Side
On the Other Side
There’s a better life waiting for me
Somewhere on the Other Side

I’ll was dishes in your restaurants
I’ll tar rooftops in your blazing sun
I’ll pick oranges and wash your cars
I’ll sell water on your boulevards
I’ll take any job you don’t want
I’ll work hard at your…discarded dream

El Coyote took all of my money and he left me here
Lying face down with a vigilante standing near
He’s got a homemade badge and a rifle and he smells like beer
He says ‘Welcome to America, now you’re gonna disappear

To the Other Side
To the Other Side
To the Other Side
Mother forgive me
I’m coming to the Other Side

On the Other Side
On the Other Side
On the Other Side
There’s a better life waiting for me
Somewhere on the Other Side
