Gretchen Peters - Border Town Lyrics
Carmelita was a street angel but she kept her halo hid
Never learned to read or write so well, she was just a farmer's kid
She took communion at the age of twelve, she wore a cross of wood
She heard the clanging of the mission be...
Nicolas Godin - The Border Lyrics
Gretchen Peters - This Used To Be My Town Lyrics
The altar boys are sneaking cigarettes
The friends and neighbors offering their regrets

South of the border, down Mexico way

Are you lonely? Are you crying?
Are those teardrops in your eyes?

Have you said your last goodbyes?
Is it over? Ar...

Then we even stevens
Shoulda traded it in my past

Thousand miles beneath the sea
