Deportees - Paddy Reilly
Музыка
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..

I loved Paddy Reilly singing, he had a great voice. You heard every word he sang.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
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.

No one can sing San Hall and Deportees like Paddy Reilly the best 💚💕
I have always loved this very poignant song and of the many versions that I've listened to this one by Paddy Reilly is my favourite. He sings it from the heart and his guitar accompaniment is perfect. A pleasure to listen to!

What a lovely song. No body can sing that song like paddy.
What a song only heard this recently absolutely fell in love with it..Paddy Reilly at his best
Absolutely the best folk singer ever, hope your enjoying your life in naples paddy, what about John and peg mc polin?
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 !

Sad to see so many Irish Americans turning to the far right and supporting the likes of the nativist bigot Trump. They and their forefathers were once the same Deportees
Met him in America 🇺🇸. Gentleman and down to earth.

First Time I Saw Paddy Reilly Was At The Embankment in Dublin and He Had Just Released His Song The Fields Of Athenry And To This Day It Is Still My Favourite Song.
Paddy is a 💎....met him many times. Class act, through and through......fair play Paddy.
The only way the poor will be notice through song Paddy Reilly great.

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.

"Deportees" Just a word for some but to others it's a hand of freedom severed at the heart
The best folk singer of them all, brilliant.
I knew Paddy when he was singing partime and working in Sagart Paper Mills. An absolute legend. Thanks for all the pleasure you have given us.
