Hey, take it and run, child
  I'll ask you no questions
  We traded our fortunes
  Crossing the border
  
  I hope you got lucky
  You needed a change
  I made it without you
  Crossing the border
  
  We were like a couple of wetbacks running
  Standin' on the banks of some dangerous river
  Lookin' into a brave new country
  Risky business
  Crossing the border
  
  Ah, you doubled my chances
  I sure do want your freedom
  I'll never forget you
  Crossing the border
  Back when we were out there
  Crossing the border
  Layin' it on the line
  Crossing the border
