Lyrics

When I was a little morrito
We moved to Los Angelitos
After three days of walking
With lots of hopes and sueñitos
Mi mami trabajaba duro
To feed me and my hermanitos
Didn't speak any English
It was hard to make amigos
I was good in school, I never missed a day
Played a lot of sports, got a lot of A's
Wanted to be a doctor someday
They say I can't cause I'm illegal
Muro, Muro
I was born south of the Muro
Muro
I grew up north of the Muro
Obama el ex presidente
Deportó a muchos amigos
But right before he left us
He passed a bill to save us
But now the presidente
Who's name we don't want to mention
Wants to take away
Our hard work and dedication
I get up at six, I head off to school
And then go to work, and do it again
Wanted to be a doctor someday
They say I can't 'cause I'm a dreamer
Muro, Muro
I was born south of the Muro
Muro
I grew up north of the Muro
Muro
I was born south of the Muro
Muro, Muro
I grew up north of the Muro
I get up at six, I head off to school
And then go to work, and do it again
Wanted to be a doctor someday
They say I can't 'cause I'm a dreamer
Muro
I was born south of the Muro
Muro, Muro
I grew up north of the Muro
Muro, Muro
I was born south of the Muro
Muro
I grew up north of the Muro
