I know I said I'd never cross the border

I know I promised to return to you
But I lost my job in the maquiladora

Verse 3
E
Tell my mamma that I said I'm sorry

I know she didn't bring me up this way
Ask if she could light a candle for me

Pray that I'll come home someday
Oh Graciela, won't you
please forgive me
B
I never meant to bring this shame to you
I lost my job in the maquiladora
E
What's a simple man to do?
