what's all the hoopla with mexican truck drivers
it seems they like to drink beer, hang out, and have women in every different town:

El Troquero

Soy Troquero y me gusta ser borracho
Soy parrandero y me gusta parrandear
Traigo dinero pa gozar con mis amigos
Y en las cantinas no me gusta pa pelear.

Aya en el valle toditos me conocen
Aya en la calle voy a gozar del amor
En San Benito también tengo un amorcito
En Santa Rosa me encontré una nueva flor.

Soy Troquero soy un triste navegante
Soy como el ave que se aria de flor en flor
Gano dinero soy feliz con mi volante
No vivo engreído ni peleo por un amor.

Música

En Corpus Christi, en Laredo y San Antonio
Solo se goza de la gloria y la ilusión
En California también tengo una pochita
Es la que me hace que me duela el corazón.

Sirvan las otras de cervezas yo las pago
Y que me toquen una polca y el acordeón
Por dios santito que la culpa es de ellos
Esa güerita me la llevo en mi camión.

Ando borracho pero a mi me importa poco
Por esas cosas me retorce el corazón
Aunque mal paguen vivan todas las mujeres
Brindo por ellas y aunque sean la perdición.

1. Just another political gimmick

Ever since the late 90's they've been driving in the states as long as it was within 25 miles of the border. Some kind of "trade zone" where they would drop their stuff off at distribution centers.

But with that said...now look for big corporations like Wal-Mart to start hiring Mexican drivers and firing American drivers. Nothing against them but lets keep things fair.
