That old Mexican man picks up cans in the roadside dust
G A E
They say that things turned bad for him when the oil booms went bust
He had a life down here in Houston, a good job and a lovin' wife
G A D
But he killed a man in Corpus, now he's serving out his life
F#m A E
A shell of a Mexican man, a number is all he is
G A E
A proud pure blood slowly drained away by the life a convict lives
F#m A E
And life without parole when he told 'em what he'd done
G A D
It's a damn shame what a man can do with an angry soul and an old war gun
A E F#m
Oh, oh can you hear it comin'
D E F#m
Oh, oh can you hear it now
A E F#m
Oh, oh can you hear it comin'
D E F#m
Oh, oh it's comin? down
After the rigs he got a job at the old A&P
