James Mudriczki - Che lyrics

rate me

One morning in Bolivia the leader of the partisans<br />

And two of his companions<br />

Were forced to flee the mountains for their lives<br />

Through green and dusty villages they sped along the little roads<br />

All the peasants smiled and shouted as they hurried by<br />

<br />

Don't think that we are leaving, don't think that we are leaving<br />

They only tried to frighten us with guns, we shall return<br />

<br />

The people smiled and shouted and they ran along a little while<br />

And then they stood and watched, their hands were restless and empty<br />

<br />

The body of Jesus was in the jeep<br />

That they blew up before it reached the plane<br />

The priest was proud to bless him<br />

For what there was of him remaining in the afternoon<br />

<br />

Don't think that we are leaving, don't think that we are leaving<br />

They only tried to frighten us with guns, we shall return<br />

<br />

Continue with your work, continue with your talk<br />

You have it in your hands to own your lives, to own your lands<br />

<br />

The smell of oil and incense fills the room in this adobe hut<br />

Where on the table lies the body of a man<br />

His face is pale and young, his beard is dark and curled<br />

Pennies hold his eyelids from the evening lights<br />

<br />

The people from the village those who knew him, those who killed him<br />

Stand inside the door, their hands are restless and empty<br />

<br />

Continue with your work, continue with your talk<br />

You have it in your hands to own your lives, to own your lands<br />

There is no one who can show you the road you should be on<br />

They only tell you, they can show you and then tomorrow they are gone<br />
