El Salvador

He could barely remember

When the fighting began

It was early September

When he lost his old manSoon the time came to leave there

And to start a new life

How it seems so unfair

When they gave him a gun and a knifeSo he fights with a gun in his hand

(A gun in his hand)

For what reason he can't understand

(He can't understand)

Yeah, he fights with a gun in his hand

(A gun in his hand)

For the freedom of their landCan you hear them crying out

(All the people in El Salvador?)

Can you hear a distant shout

(From the people in El Salvador?)As he stares at the ceiling

He thinks back quite aways

It was him that was dealing

Tell you those were the daysAs he stares at a white dove

Tears roll down on his face

And then once filled with love

That only God himself can replaceOh, so he fights with a gun in his hand

(A gun in his hand)

For what reason he can't understand

(He can't understand)

Yeah, he fights with a gun in his hand

(A gun in his hand)

For the freedom of their landCan you hear the crying out

(All the people in El Salvador?)

Can you hear a distant shout

(From the people in El Salvador?)Cross your heart and hope to die

(For the people in El Salvador?)

Still they kill not knowing why

(All the people in El Salvador?)Can you hear them cry?

Can you see them die?

Can you tell me why?

(Can you tell me why?)

All the people in El Salvador

(El Salvador)Can you hear them cry?

Can you see them die?

Can you tell me why?

(Can you tell me why?)

All the people in El Salvador

(El Salvador)Can you hear the crying out

(All the people in El Salvador?)

Can you hear a distant shout

(From the people in El Salvador?)Cross your heart and hope to die

(For the people in El Salvador?)

Still they kill not knowing why

(All the people in El Salvador?)
