He could barely remember
When the fighting began
It was early September
When he lost his old man
Soon (the time) ???
And (to start) a new life
How it seems so unfair
When they (gave him a gun and a knife)
So he fights with a gun in his hand
For a reason he can't understand
Fights with a gun in his hand
For (the) freedom (of their land)
Chorus:
Can you hear the crying out
All the people in El Salvador
Can you hear a distant shout
>From the neonle 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
As he stares at the ceiling
He thinks back right away
It was (him that was) feeling
??? ??? those weary days
As he stares at the white tower
Tears roll down on his face
And they run through without
That ??? every place
Ch:
Can you hear them cry?
Can you see them die?
Can you tell me why? Oh no
See them die, hear them cry, tell me why
Ch:
