It is a million miles, a giant place
Like a work of art, amazing, amazing
Fast cars that can not move die for a parking space
Stuck on a carousel, crazy, it is crazy
When you laugh until you cry
When you laugh

All´s well here in El Norte
Who´d have thought it could be like this
Big money for a job well done
I swear to you
I got a ride from a coyote
Who selIs high on the black market
So your loved one can be home soon
So your loved one can be home soon

Fine women with dress-up clothes say & do anything
Wake up to work the day, tousled & tangled

Rub shoulders with the downtown gang
Where the Virgin lives
Just like a movie star, hopeful & graceful
When she smiles until you laugh
Until you cry

All´s well here in El Norte
Who´d have thought it could be like this
Big money for a job well done
I swear to you
I got a ride from a coyote
Who selIs high on the black market
So your loved one can be home soon
So your loved one can be home soon

Maybe I do not understand it
Maybe I would not try
But nobody seems too satisfied

All´s well here in El Norte
Who´d have thought it could be like this
So your loved one can be home soon
So your loved one can be home (can be home soon)

All´s well here in El Norte
Who´d have thought it could be like this
Big money for a job well done
I swear to you
I got a ride from a coyote
Who selIs high on the black market
So your loved one can be home soon
So your loved one can be home (can be home soon)
