Jesus lived in a ramshackle shack
with a fat New Orleans junkie.
Charismatic cholo so some say
he was born plain lucky.
Cruise the streets of Juarez
in his low cut El Dorado
Divine command and oil slick hands
with brash and bold bravado.
Mother Mary said, "Your time has come
for the river's wide but can be fought and won."
For the very love of God and Man
ooh Jesus crossed the Rio Grande.
(Look at here) Jesus fell in step with a group
of high powered Federales.
Sat them down and formed their plan
through a haze of cold Tecates.
Judas said, "Now, Jeez, I know
you're prone to walk on water.
If you swim downstream there's a better chance
that you'll make it across the border (yeah)."
Mother Mary said, "Your time has come
for the river's wide but can be fought and won."
For the very love of God and Man
oh Jesus crossed the Rio Grande.
Jesus made his run on a hot
and humid Friday night.
But his vision it was blinded
by the bright El Paso lights.
He never saw the shot
that left him short of freedom's land.
But the faithful they're still waiting
for the coming of their man (well).
Mother Mary said, "Your time has come
for the river's wide but can be fought and won."
For the very love of God and Man
ooh Jesus crossed the Rio Grande.
