You mean the lyrics? This song was sung by Dolly Parton on her 9 to 5 And Odd Jobs album in 1980. It is copyright 1961 and 1963 so it is an older song. Philomena sang it on the You're In My Heart album in 1984. This version can be found on the The Way Old Friends Do double cd. The lyrics, per the net for Dolly's version, are as follows: The crops are all in and the peaches are rotting The oranges are piled in their creosote dumps You're flying them back to the Mexican border To pay all their money to wade back again Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye Rosalita Adios mis a-mi-gos, Jesus and Maria You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane All they will call you will be deportee Some of us are illegal and some of us are not wanted Our work contract's out and we have to move on But it's 600 miles to that mexican border They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye Rosalita Adios mis a-mi-gos, Jesus and Maria You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane All they will call you will be deportee My father's own father, waded that river They took all the money he made in his life My brothers and sister come work the fruit trees They rode the truck til' they took down and died The airplane caught fire over Los Gatos canyon A fireball of lightning that shook all our hills Who are these dear friends all scattered like dry leaves The radio said they were just deportees Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye Rosalita Adios mis a-mi-gos, Jesus and Maria You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane All they will call you will be deportee No, all they will call you will be deportee All they will call you will be deportee

Ageless voice, incredible power still.

The lyrics, per the net for Dolly's version, are as follows:
The crops are all in and the peaches are rotting
The oranges are piled in their creosote dumps
You're flying them back to the Mexican border
To pay all their money to wade back again
Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye Rosalita
Adios mis a-mi-gos, Jesus and Maria
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
All they will call you will be deportee
Some of us are illegal and some of us are not wanted
Our work contract's out and we have to move on
But it's 600 miles to that mexican border
They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves
Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye Rosalita
Adios mis a-mi-gos, Jesus and Maria
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
All they will call you will be deportee
My father's own father, waded that river
They took all the money he made in his life
My brothers and sister come work the fruit trees
They rode the truck til' they took down and died
The airplane caught fire over Los Gatos canyon
A fireball of lightning that shook all our hills
Who are these dear friends all scattered like dry leaves
The radio said they were just deportees
Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye Rosalita
Adios mis a-mi-gos, Jesus and Maria
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
All they will call you will be deportee
No, all they will call you will be deportee
All they will call you will be deportee
