Reba McEntire - Just Across The Rio Grande [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
The lights of Laredo dance on the water and shine in a young man's eyes
Who stand on the border and dreams of paradise
He's heard crazy stories of how people live over in the promised land
He heard they eat three meals a day, just across the Rio Grande
He's got a wife named Maria, and a baby named Rose, and another one to feed on the way
Two willing hands, that couldn't find work today
He stares at the river and curses the future, that he can't understand
He knows the child would have a chance, just across the Rio Grande

[Chorus]
It's only a river, that's not so deep or wide
A boy can throw a stone across and reach the other side
It's just some muddy water, cutting through the land
But a man can make a dream come true just across the Rio Grande

[Verse 2]
The lights of Laredo dance on the water and shine in a young man's eyes
Who stand on the border and dreams of paradise
He's heard crazy stories of how good life is over in the promised land
And sometimes it seems like God must live just across the Rio Grande

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Sometimes it seems like God must live just across the Rio Grande
