Story behind the song
I am an industral electrican and I lived this
Lyrics
Me and Pedro we worked for the man
just making a living however we can
work hard with our skills to make a fair wage
and leave all we got at the end of the day
Pedro he worked with a green card
and he'd leave the country when it expired
He became a citizen just three weeks today
but illegals have taken his job away
Chorus
He works at our trade and he buys all his tools
learned to speak english and plays by the rules
layoff time comes and his work looks the best
but the illegals are working for 8 dollars less
layoff time comes and his work looks the best
but the illegals are working for 8 dollars less
verse
Now listen George Bush our famlies need food,
shelter, clothes, and transportion just like you
He's worked in your country and played by your rules
now you give the illegals Pedro's job too
Chorus
Now listen George Bush I know your in with the man
you'll all cheat poor people whenever you can
but work and rules is something we need
illeagls don't need no anmesty
Chorus
Illegals have taken our jobs away
proclamation King George has passed out today
as quick as your legal then they'll lay you off
and lead an illegal to your feed trough
Chorus
