Oh oh oh oh? Please don't tell me I can't make it It ain't gonna do me any good And please don't offer me your modern methods I'm fixin' to carve this out of wood From Nogales to Magdalena There are 60 miles of sacred road And the promise is made for those who venture San Francisco will lift your load Oh oh oh oh ? In the land of old Sonora A shallow river valley cries The summer left her without forgiveness It's mirrored in her children's eyes Prodigal sons and wayward daughters Carry mandals that they might Be delivered through the depths of darkness And born again by candlelight And born again by candlelight Oh oh oh oh?. Blisters on my feet Wooden rosary I felt them in my pocket as I ran A bullet in the night A Federales life San Francisco do you understand? Tell him that I made the journey And tell him that my heart is true I'd like his blessing of forgiveness Before the angels send it through And I will know that I am clean now And I will dance and the band will play In the old out to cantina Cops will runneth over the ancient clay And if I should fall to temptation When I return to the evil throes From Nogales to Magdalena As a two-time beggar I will go Where I know I can be forgiven The broken heart of Mexico oh oh oh? The broken heart of Mexico oh oh oh? The Broken heart of Mexico
