    Tom Russell wrote a song about this. It’s good.

    https://youtu.be/WZ3Q4W9Y6kM

    I’ve got 800 miles of open border

    Right outside my door

    There’s minute men in little pick up trucks

    Who’ve declared their own damn war

    Now the government wants to build

    A barrier like old Berlin 8 feet tall

    But if uncle Sam sends the illegals home

    Who’s gonna build the wall?

    (Chorus)

    Who’s gonna build your wall boys?

    Who’s gonna mow your lawn?

    Who’s gonna cook your Mexican food

    When your Mexican maid is gone?

    Who’s gonna wax the floors tonight

    Down at the local mall?

    Who’s gonna wash your baby’s face?

    Who’s gonna build your wall?

    (end chorus)

    Now I ain’t got no politics

    So don’t lay that rap on me

    Left wing, right wing, up wing, down wing

    I see strip malls from sea to shining sea

    It’s the fat cat white developer

    Who’s created this whole damn squall

    It’s a pyramid scheme of dirty jobs

    And who’s gonna build your wall?

    (chorus)

    We’ve got fundamentalist Muslims

    We’ve got fundamentalist Jews

    We’ve got fundamentalist Christians

    They’ll blow the whole thing up for you

    But as I travel around this big old world

    There’s one thing that I most fear

    It’s a white man in a golf shirt

    With a cell phone in his ear

    (Chorus)
