Quick Sand |
| I left my home in Tamaulipas |
| In Sonoyta I came across |
| Just six of us when we started |
| Walking behind the coyote boss |
| The old man said let me go there with you |
| Yes I’m old but I’m mighty tough |
| I know the fOad maybe I can help you |
| [ got good shoes I won’t hold you up |
| But up on Tinajas Altas he stumbled and he fell |
| He begged and pleaded we had to leave him |
| Lying on Camino Diablo Trail |
| Quick sand I think we lost direct ion |
| Quick sand now we’re losing ground |
| Quick sand nobody 'round to help us |
| Quick sand now we’re sinking down |
| Thought we was getting close to Yuma |
| I heard it’s an unfriendly town |
| We just need a cool drink of water |
| Even Yuma can’t turn a poor boy down |
| Then a Dodge Ram truck drove down on us |
| Saying I’m your Arizona vigilante man |
| I’m here to say you ain’t welcome in Yuma |
| L’m taking you out just as hard as I can |
| I saw mi madre crying in her rocking chair alone |
| I saw La Llorona flying please take a message back home |
| Quick sand I think we lost direction |
| Quick sand now we’re losing ground |
| Quick sand nobody 'round to help us |
| Quick sand now we’re sinking down |
