Drive-By Truckers

Ramon Casiano

It all started with the border

And that's still where it is today

Someone killed Ramon Casiano

And the killer got away

Down by the Sister Cities river

Two boys with way more pride than sense

One would fall and one would prosper

Never forced to make amends

He became a border agent

And supplemented what he made

With creative deportation

And missing ammo by the case

Since Bullet ran the operation

There's hardly been a minute since

There ain't a massing at the border

From Chinese troops to terrorists

He had the makings of a leader

Of a certain kind of men

Who need to feel the world's against him

Out to get 'em if it can

Men whose trigger pull their fingers

Of men who'd rather fight than win

United in a revolution

Like in mind and like in skin

It all started with the border

And that's still where it is today

Down by the Sister Cities river

But for sure no one can say

The killing's been the bullet's business

Since back in 1931

Someone killed Ramon Casiano

And Ramon still ain't dead enough
