Below, I translated the lyrics of the song The Road To Gila Bend by Los Lobos from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Made Nogales over night
Made Nogales overnight
Through the desert in the yellow light
Through the desert in the yellow light
Missing everything I left behind
Missing everything I left behind
Will they see me coming?
Will they see me coming?
Do they know I'm running?
Do they know I'm running?
Got to Tucson in the dark
Got to Tucson in the dark
Keeping an eye out for the law
Keeping an eye out for the law
Five hundred miles or more from a broken heart
Five hundred miles or more from a broken heart
Can they see me coming?
Can they see me coming?
Do they know I'm running?
Do they know I'm running?
It's a long, long way to Gila Bend
It's a long, long way to Gila Bend
One silver dollar in my hand
One silver dollar in my hand
Road twists and turns is there no end
Road twists and turns is there no end
When I get there I can lay my head
When I get there I can lay my head
Saw a church along the way
Saw a church along the way
A place to hide, to kneel and pray
A place to hide, to kneel and pray
Help me make it maybe one more day
Help me make it maybe one more day
Can they see me coming?
Can they see me coming?
Do they know I'm running?
Do they know I'm running?
It's a long, long way to Gila Bend
It's a long, long way to Gila Bend
One silver dollar in my hand
One silver dollar in my hand
Road twists and turns is there no end
Road twists and turns is there no end
When I get there I can lay my head
When I get there I can lay my head
