Biography:
At least five artists share the name Rodriquez.
1) Sixto Diaz Rodriguez (also known as Rodriguez or as Jesus Rodriguez) is an American folk musician, born in Detroit, Michigan on July 10, 1942. He was named 'Sixto' (pronounced seex-toe) because he was the sixth child in his family. Rodriguez's parents were middle-class immigrants from Mexico, who left in the 1920s. In most of his songs he takes a political stance on the cruelties facing the inner city poor.

[Intro]
Am*
[Verse]
Dm* E* Am*
The moon is hanging in the purple sky
Dm* E* bass Dm*
Baby's sleeping while its mother sighs
E* Am*
Talking 'bout the rich folks
Dm*
Rich folks have the same jokes
E* Am*
And they park in basic places
[Verse]
The priest is preaching from a shallow grave
He counts his money, then he paints you saved
Talking to the young folks
Young folks share the same jokes
But they meet in older places
[Chorus]
Dm* E Am*
So don't tell me about your success
Dm* E Am*
Nor your recipes for my happiness
Dm* E
Smoke in bed
Am*
I never could digest
Dm* E Am*
Those illusions you claim to have going
[Verse]
The sun is shining, as it's always done
Carbon dust is the fate of everyone
Talking 'bout the rich folks
The poor create the rich hoax
And only late breast-fed fools believe it
[Chorus]
So don't tell me about your success
Nor your recipes for my happiness
Smoke in bed
I never could digest
Those illusions you claim to have going
