  • Recorded in Cork, at the Opera House.
    The crops are all in and the peaches are gathered
    Oranges packed in their creosote bins
    They re flying them back to the Mexican border
    Twill take all their money to get back again
    So farewell to my friends goodbye Roselita
    Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria
    You won't have a name when you fly the big aeroplane
    All they will call you will be deportees
    The skyplane caught fire over Los Gatos Canyon
    The fire ball lit- up and struck the hills round
    Oh who were those friends who were scanered like dry leaves
    The radio said they were just deportees
    So farewell to my friends goodbye Roselita
    Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria
    You won't have a name when you fly the big aeroplane
    All they will call you will be deportees
    Is this the best way for to plough our good orchards?
    Is this the best way to grow our good fruit
    To lie on the ground and to rot on the topsoil
    And never know no name except deportees
    So farewell to my friends goodbye Roselita
    Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria
    You won't have a name when you fly the big aeroplane
    All they will call you will be deportees
    Some of us are illegal, and some are not wanted,
    Our work contract's finished wev'e got to move on
    It's Six hundred miles to the Mexican border,
    They chase us like rustlers, like outlaws, like thieves.
    So farewell to my friends goodbye Roselita
    Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria
    You won't have a name when you fly the big aeroplane
    all they will call you will be deportees

    When Paddy was a young man he was my Dad's assistant at Swiftbrook Paper Mills in Saggart. He was always a very down to earth person as were his family. God bless you Paddy. I love your music..

    A lovely singer and a lovely man, I used to deliver Paddy's heating oil in Rathcoole and to his Son only a few doors up from his house.A very down to earth person and a lovely person and I still listen to his songs in 2019 thanks Paddy for all the pleasure you gave me over the years in your lovely music and songs. I hope your keeping well.

    As the great Kris Kristofferson says "It's important to remember the names of the people we kill". Those deportees names are: Miguel Negrete Álvarez. Tomás Aviña de Gracia. Francisco Llamas Durán. Santiago García Elizondo. Rosalio Padilla Estrada. Tomás Padilla Márquez. Bernabé López Garcia. Salvador Sandoval Hernández. Severo Medina Lára. Elías Trujillo Macias. José Rodriguez Macias. Luis López Medina. Manuel Calderón Merino. Luis Cuevas Miranda. Martin Razo Navarro. Ignacio Pérez Navarro. Román Ochoa Ochoa. Ramón Paredes Gonzalez. Guadalupe Ramírez Lára. Apolonio Ramírez Placencia. Alberto Carlos Raygoza. Guadalupe Hernández Rodríguez. Maria Santana Rodríguez. Juan Valenzuela Ruiz. Wenceslao Flores Ruiz. José Valdívia Sánchez. Jesús Meza Santos. Baldomero Marcas Torres.

      The fact that the media depersonalised such a horrific event made it all the more tragic when we learn about what happened that day. Ive been listening to this song for about 30 years but reading the actual names of those who perished have made me reflect so much more.. Thank you for posting the names of those unfortunate victims.

    Very important song: a stone against the wall of a blond haired "innocent" Duck...
    Written by the unique Woodie Guthrie, after announcement of a plane crash over Los Gatos, Mexican border. Victims were seasonal workers coming back home.
    And the radio said "They were just deportees" . Of course all Irish might be sensitive to this ! Thank you Paddy ! Good Bye Roselita !
