Lyrics
0:17Please don't tell me I can't make it
0:21It ain't gonna do me any good
0:24And please don't offer me your modern methods
0:28I'm fixing to carve this out of wood
0:32From Nogales to Magdalena
0:37There are 60 miles of sacred road
0:39And the promise is made to those who venture
0:43San Francisco lift your load
0:53In the land of old Sonora
0:57A shallow river valley cries
1:01The summer left her without forgiveness
1:05It's mirrored in her children's eyes
1:08Prodigal sons and wayward daughters
1:12Carry mandas that they might
1:15Be delivered from the debts of darkness
1:19And born again by candlelight
1:23And born again my candlelight
1:34Blisters on my feet' wooden rosary
1:41I felt them in my pocket as I ran
1:46A bullet in the night' a Federales light
1:56San Francisco' do you understand
2:04Tell them that I've made the journey
2:07And tell them that my heart is true
2:10I'd like his blessing of forgiveness
2:14Before the angels send it through
2:20And I will know that I am clean now
2:23And I will dance and the band will play
2:27And the old ( ) cantina
2:31Cause he runneth over the ancient clay
2:34And if I should fall to temptation
2:38Will I return to evil throws
2:41From Nogales to Magdalena
2:45As a two time beggar I will go
2:49Where I know I can be forgiven
2:52The broken heart of Mexico
2:57Oh oh oh oh oh
3:01The broken heart of Mexico
3:04Oh oh oh oh oh
3:07The broken heart of Mexico
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 fixing to carve this out of wood From Nogales to Magdalena There are 60 miles of sacred road And the promise is made to those who venture San Francisco lift your load 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 mandas that they might Be delivered from the debts of darkness And born again by candlelight And born again my candlelight Blisters on my feet' wooden rosary I felt them in my pocket as I ran A bullet in the night' a Federales light San Francisco' do you understand Tell them that I've made the journey And tell them 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 And the old ( ) cantina Cause he runneth over the ancient clay And if I should fall to temptation Will I return to evil throws 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 oh oh The broken heart of Mexico Oh oh oh oh oh The broken heart of Mexico
