The Crossing Lyrics

I defied the Sonoran wilds,
A wooden border fence to cross.
I ll feed my wife and child
With the calloused hands my homeland lost.
The last desert wolf has died,
But I will struggle on
To the North.

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e66828-cormorant~the_crossing_lyrics.html ]
A battered dog claws the dust
And cowers to the brush as I pass.

On to the American dream.
