Luyện nghe bài hát Balboa Park

He lay his blanket the freeway
As the evening sky grew
a sniff of toncho from his coke can
And headed through Park
Where the men in Mercedes
Come to employ
In the San Diego evening
The services of the border

He grew up the Zona Norte
With the hustlers and smugglers he out with
He their balloons of cocaine
Brought 'em across to the Street strip
in a shelter
If the night got too
from the migra
Of the border

Past the salvage yard the train tracks
And in through the storm
They stretched their blankets out the freeway
And one took a name
was X-man and Cochise
Little Spider his sneakers in river mud
come north to California
End up with the poison in their

He did what he had to for the
he sent home what he could spare
The went to high-top sneakers and toncho
And jeans like the wear

One night the patrol swept Twelfth Street
A big car come down the boulevard
stood caught in its headlights
Got hit and went hard
As the car sped away Spider held his
Limped to his blanket 'neath the
Lie there his own blood on his tongue
Closed his eyes and to the cars
by so fast
