[Verse 1]
I got my discharge from Fort Irwin
Took a place on the San Diego County line
Felt funny being a civilian again
It'd been some time
My wife had died a year ago
I was still trying to find my way back whole
I went to work for the INS on the line
With the California Border Patrol
[Verse 2]
Bobby Ramirez was a ten-year veteran
And we became friends
His family was from Guanajuato
So the job, it was different for him
He said, "They risk death in the deserts and the mountains
Pay all they got to the smugglers' rings
We send them home, and they come right back again
Carl, hunger is a powerful thing."
[Verse 3]
Well, I was good at doing what I was told
Kept my uniform pressed and clean
At night, I chased their shadows
Through the arroyos and ravines
Drug runners, farmers with their families
Young women with little children by their sides
Come night, we'd wait out in the canyons
Try to keep 'em from crossing the line
