Alambrista! Page #3

Cut it out!

Get this thing off me!

They can't do anything.

They can't catch us up here.

Do like showed you.

You enter my solitude

Your smile lights up my darkness

Your body next to mine

truly do need you

if only for a while

Your passion eases my pain

Hey, you missed some.

Thought you didn't want those.

Yeah, put 'em in the bucket.

Working hard?

Very hard.

Let's go.

One, two, three, four...

...thirteen.

Thirteen?

Then 13 more.

- How's it going?

- See ya around.

Sharon.

What's up, man?

Got another job.

It pays better.

I'm gonna be rollin' in dough now.

What do you think?

What do you think?

Work.

How's it look?

Very nice.

It's going to Mexico.

Tonight give you a scarf

So you'll come dance with me

My hearts full of affection

That gladly offer to you

Tonight your eyes are shining

Like mirrors re?ecting my love

Your smile like the new moon

Playing hide-and-seek

La migra! Out the back!

Illegals!

Anyone without papers!

Out the back!

Stand against the wall.

Any matches or cigarettes?

What's your name?

Roberto what?

Ramirez.

Good-b ye, California

They're taking me away

But'll always carry you with me

God willing, I'll

return very soon

I'm leaving my experiences behind

will return

Dear Lord, grant me this much

Let me have your attention, men.

Please.

You all know...

it costs $200

to get to the U.. to find work.

Right?

Well, you bums got lucky.

You won't have to pay

a single peso.

If you're hard workers

and are really looking to work,

can take you there,

and it won't cost you a peso.

Why would do this?

Because like you so much?

You're all smart guys, right?

can't fool you.

The thing is, there's a strike

going on in Colorado,

and they need men like you

to pick melons.

So if you want,

you can go now and pay later.

The $200 will come

out of your pay.

But that won't be a problem.

Listen, just got back

from Colorado.

They're paying better

than in California.

So how many are interested?

Come on.

Have a beer on me

after you sign up.

Want to go too.

I'm a hard worker,

and have a daughter.

Let me finish with the men first.

Then I'll see what can do, okay?

Don't worry.

It's just on the other side, see?

The worst is over.

Tomorrow morning

a truck will pick you up

and take you to Colorado,

where you'll make good money.

So relax for now,

and by tomorrow...

you'll be making good money.

Get up. Come on.

Get up. On your feet.

The food's here.

Alberto!

Ramirez!

That's my dad!

This is where your father lived.

It's not much.

A broken-down bus.

- They always live like this?

- Sometimes, man.

This is where your old man lived.

What's that?

This is all he left behind.
