It's a word used in Latin America to refer to white people from English speaking countries. "No Gringo" basically means Americans (U.S. citizens in this case) aren't welcome south of the border-- the situation between the U.S. and Mexico had reversed in this song, and Americans were the ones fleeing to Mexico for a better life and opportunities.
A very powerful song which really works to help one understand what it might be like to be an illegal immigrant.
POWERFUL - love this song and performance. I've seen her live and can't recommend her highly enough.
first!! nice job you have a very calm controlled smooth voice.
loved it, but couldn't catch more than a few words; whats No Gringo mean?
