GUEST,Jim Racist songs .... arghhhh! (115* d) RE: Racist songs .... arghhhh! 07 May 09


Ian Tyson changed just one line of the Border Affair and gave it a different slant:

I ain't seen her since that night,
I can't cross the line, you know.
She was Mex and I was white;
Like as not it's better so.
Yet I've always sort of missed her
Since that last wild night I kissed her;
She stole my heart, left her own
"Adios, mi Corazon"


"She was Mex and I was white" became "Wanted for a gamblin' fight"

I ain't seen her since that night,
I can't cross the line, you know.
Wanted for a gamblin' fight;
Like as not it's better so.
Yet I've always sort of missed her
Since that last wild night I kissed her;
She stole my heart, left her own
"Adios, mi Corazon"
