Inspired by all the news from our southern border.

lyrics

Are you lost little child?
Did you cross the Mayan wild?
With the heat of the desert and rattlesnakes at your feet?
Did you fall from your mother’s hip somewhere along that trip?
Did she burn in the fire of the desert sun?

You are wiser than the men who fight this war.
You are stronger than the men who built this wall.


Did a man with a gun shoot you down one by one?
Did coyotes drag you 1500 miles?
Did they put you on trial, although you’re just a child?
Did they charge you with running for your life?

You are wiser than the men who fight this war
Walking in the dark under the stars.

You are stronger than the men who built this wall.
Looking for somewhere to call home.
