Phil Ochs: Ballad Of The Cuban Invasion

aus dem Album: Unknown

Songtext:
A thousand went to take the island Wuppertal Internetseiten
Chances strong(?) as broken twigs Folien Druck
And a thousand stayed there at the island Konsolidierung
Met their fate fate at the bay of pigs Tischläufer rot
Begleitagentur in Hamburg
They were told when they arrived Memory spielen
They'd be helped by castro's men
But they found out, those who survived
That the cia was wrong again

Why were they wearing my country clothes?
Why were they spending my country's gold?
Who were the friends and who were the foes?
The headlines were lying, why wasn't i told?

(repeat first verse)
