1
He tried so hard to keep her bound
2
She was bought and sold in some Norteno town
3
All those chains and dowries locked her in
4
Her grandmother would say it's just a little sin
5
For 10 long years she lived as if a slave
6
Pinned beneath his thumb in the United States
7
Solitary nights
8
She was a victim of unfettered free trade, he beat her daily, kept her locked away
9
until the day she was to be replaced, when she met him in the kitchen
10
and beat him to death with a table leg
11
Solitary nights
12
Rosa went and turned herself in
13
thinking that she would be treated fairly in the land of the free
14
The judge he put her away for life and then some
15
And Rosa found the chains they put on her were longer
16
than the ones she freed herself from
17
So she waits
18
and she counts the days
19
Never knowing what it's like to get away
