The Line Album Version-Bruce Springsteen
I got my discharge from fort irwin

Took a place on the san diego county line

Felt funny bein a civilian again

Itd be some time

My wife had died a year ago

I was still tryin to find my way back whole

Went to work for the ins on the line

With the california border patrol

Bobby ramirez was a ten year veteran

We became friends

His family was from
Guanajuato

So the job it was different for him

said He they risk death in the deserts and mountains

Pay all they got to the smugglers rings

We send em home and they come right back again

Carl hunger is a powerful thing.

Well I was good at doin what I was to

Ld kept my uniform pressed and clean

At night I chased their shadows

Thru the arroyos and ravines

Drug runners farmers with their families

Young women with little children by their sides

Come night wed wait out in the canyons

And try to keep em from crossin the line

Well the first time that I saw her

She was in the holdin pen

Our eyes met and she looked away

Then she looked back again

Her hair was black as coal

Her eyes reminded me of what Id lost

She had a young child cryin in her arms

I asked senora is there anything I can do?

Theres a bar in tijuana

me Where and bobby alongsidedrink
The same people wed sent back the day before

She said her name was louisa

She was from sonora and had just come north

We danced and I held her in my arms

And I knew what I would do

said She she had some family in madera county
If she her child and younger brother could just get thru

At night they come across the levee

In the searchlights dusty glow

Wed rush em in our broncos

Force em back down into the river below

She climbed into my truck

She leaned toward me and we kissed

As we drove her brothers shirt slipped open

And I saw the tape across his chest

We were just about on the highway

When bobbys jeep come up in the dust on my right

I pulled over and let my engine run

And stepped out into his lights

I felt myself movin

My gun restin neath my hand

We stood there starin at each other

As off thru the arroyo she ran

Bobby ramirez he never said nothin

6 months later I left the line

I drifted to the central valley

And took what work I could find

At night I searched the local bars

And the migrant towns

Lookin for my louisa

With the black hair fallin down
