They already yelled at me a thousand times
_____
That I go back to my land
_____
Because I don't fit here
I want to remind the gringo
_____
I didn't cross the border, the border crossed me
_____
America was born free, man divided it
They took eight states from us
_____
I'm a foreigner in my land and I'm not coming to give them war
And if history doesn't lie
_____
Here the glory settled, the mighty nation
_____
Among brave warriors, Indians from two continents
_____
And if we go back through the centuries, we're more American
_____
We're more American than the son of the Anglo-Saxon
_____
They bought the waters of the Rio Bravo from us without money
_____
And they took Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado from us
_____
California flew away too, and with Nevada and Utah they weren't satisfied
_____
They also snatched the state of Wyoming from us
_____
I'm the blood of the Indian, I'm Latino, I'm mestizo
_____
We're of every color and of every trade
_____
And if we count the centuries, even if it hurts the neighbor
_____
We're more American than every single gringo
_____
And if history doesn't lie
_____
Here the glory settled, the mighty nation
_____
Among brave warriors, Indians from two continents
_____
And if we go back through the centuries, we're more American
_____
We're more American than the son of the Anglo-Saxon
