《Bullets Of Mexico(Unreleased LP Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Bullets Of Mexico (Unreleased LP Version) - Phil Ochs

[00:00:15] The peons of mexico long have known suffering and pain

[00:00:20] Zapata and villa have died there fighting in vain

[00:00:26] Ruben jaramillo kept up the tradition

[00:00:28] He fought for the land once again

[00:00:31] He lived for the land

[00:00:32] And there on the land he was slain

[00:00:37] A forty-five bullet has ended the life of a man

[00:00:40] Who had lived by the gun

[00:00:42] But all of the bullets of mexico

[00:00:44] Cannot undo all the work that he's done

[00:00:51] The greedy capiques have stolen

[00:00:52] And plundered the land

[00:00:56] With pistoleros they ruled with a cold iron hand

[00:01:02] The poor campesinos could stand it no longer

[00:01:04] Resistance was starting to grow

[00:01:07] Jaramillo decided to fight for a new mexico

[00:01:13] A forty-five bullet has ended the life of a man

[00:01:16] Who had lived by the gun

[00:01:18] But all of the bullets of mexico

[00:01:20] Cannot undo all the work that he's done

[00:01:26] For twenty long years

[00:01:28] He fought and he struggled and tried

[00:01:32] (Effe bonilla) His wife always there at his side

[00:01:38] Often surrounded he always was hounded

[00:01:40] They searched for him near far and wide

[00:01:43] A man of deep sorrow

[00:01:45] But also a man of deep pride

[00:01:49] A forty-five bullet has ended the life of a man

[00:01:52] Who had lived by the gun

[00:01:54] But all of the bullets of mexico

[00:01:57] Cannot undo all the work that he's done

[00:02:03] Two thousand peasants he led to their long-promised land

[00:02:08] And the armys revenge killed the wife

[00:02:10] And the sons and the man

[00:02:14] His assasins rejoiced with their whiskey and women

[00:02:17] They laughed and they danced on his grave

[00:02:20] Now the land waits again

[00:02:21] For another to ride on the waves

[00:02:26] A forty-five bullet has ended the life of a man

[00:02:29] Who had lived by the gun

[00:02:31] But all of the bullets of mexico

[00:02:34] Cannot undo all the work that he's done
