Sally Was A Cop - Alejandro Escovedo

Sally was a cop but now she’s a solider

another foot deep

another debt older

I used to be on top

now I just roll over

I used to run hot

now I run a little colder

they’re marching up the streets

people hiding in their cubbords

from the crooked politicos

to the mercenary lovers

the socialites and psychopaths are

dancing with each other

Sally was a cop now she’s a solider

shot in the face in the ditches of Tecate

35 bodies lying in the highway

children forced to dig the graves of their fathers

Sally was a cop

now she’s a solider

they’re marching down the street

people hiding in their cubbords

children’s forced to dig

the graves of their fathers

Sally was a cop

now she’s a solider
