Testo Inna From Mexico - Jack Ingram
Testo della canzone Inna From Mexico (Jack Ingram), tratta dall'album Hey You
Ina came from Mexico
She tried to find a job
She figured she'd work on rich girls' nails
That couldn't be so hard
Ina's got a twelve-year-old
And she dies inside
She can't get the picture from her eyes
Leaving her little girl behind
She's gonna find a daddy here
Her little girl's gonna come here, too
But just like every other dream so far
She knows that one probably won't come true
And you can see it in her smile, looking in her eyes
Yeah, that's right, she keeps her smile when she's about to cry
And I think she knows the truth, but she whispers faith
And Ina's friends back home think she's got it made
So every week, she sends some money home
She says things here are going well
She doesn't let the tears touch the page
And stain the letter all to hell
I met Ina at a grocery store
We were waiting in line
I asked her who the Barbie doll was for
You'd have thought that I had asked her who died
So I started to apologize
Man, I was just trying to kill some time
But I still can't get Ina from my mind
But I will never look behind
'Cause I can see it in her smile, looking in her eyes
Yeah, that's right, she keeps her smile when she's about to cry
And I think she knows the truth, but she whispers faith
And Ina's friends back home think she's got it made
Yes, I think she knows the truth, but she whispers faith
And Ina's friends back home, they think she's got it made
