Hey, take it and run, child

I'll ask you no questions

We traded our fortunes

Crossing the border

I hope you got lucky

You needed a change

I--I made it without you

Crossing the border

We were like a couple of wetbacks running

Standin' on the banks of some dangerous river

Lookin' into a brave new country

Risky business

Crossing the border

Ahhh, you--you doubled my chances

I--I sure do want your freedom

I--I'll never forget you

Crossing the border

Back when we were out there

Crossing the border

Layin' it on the line

Crossing the border
