[Verse 1]
Border radio is playing low, a sonnet soft and sweet
A station 'cross the Rio Grande broadcast on an AM band
Can't tell what she's singin', it's a language I don't know
But if she's singin' of her homeland, that's where I wanna go
[Verse 2]
I recognized a word or two, "azul" and "corazón"
I've also had a heart that's blue, Lord knows I've been alone
El Camino Del Diablo from the dusk until the dawn
La camina de estrellas, that's the one I should be on
[Bridge]
Well, I lost that station driving through the Davis mountain range
Broken heart outside of Marfa, while a Spanish angel sang
I can't tell what she's singin', it's a language I don't know
But if she's singin' of her homeland, that's whеre I wanna go
[Verse 4]
When I pulled into thе motel, she was stuck inside my head
Crying, "Ciña oh Patria," lying wide awake in bed
I can't tell what she's singin', it's a language I don't know
But if she's singin' of her homeland, that's where I wanna go
[Outro]
Border radio is playing low, a sonnet soft and sweet
A station 'cross the Rio Grande broadcast on an AM band
I can't tell what she's singin', it's a language I don't know
But if she's singin' of her homeland, that's where I'm bound to go
I think she's singin' of her homeland, that's where I'm bound to go
