Get Back Wet Back
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You got to get back wetback, you're not welcome here
Except in the harvest when we turn a deaf ear
The might of America has said to you no
And don't you remember the Alamo
Get back, wetback, across the Rio Grande
Get out of Texas, back to your homeland
Don't expect no sympathy from old Uncle Sam
The land of the free means you can't come in
You may have killed our fathers and said to us no
But don't you remember the Alamo
Get back, wetback, across the Rio Grande
Get out of Texas, back to your homeland
The Indians will rise just wait and see
No man deserves such poverty
You may have killed our fathers and said to us no
But don't you remember the Alamo
Get back, wetback, across the Rio Grande
Get out of Texas, back to your homeland
