An Interlude - Beginning to Take it Back 歌词

Words to describe Nicaragua of old Cash crops and hunger and US control Coffee and sugar on company land Made to supply what the boss would demand Then one July morning in seventy-nine Nicaragua decided to leave it behind (Chorus) And the people are learning to take back their lives As the country will change, Sandinista survives Women are winning what they've never known The power to organize outside the home Starting to find what is equal and fair Ensuring that this revolution is shared Regaining lost chances, demanding much more Running the factories, fighting the war (Repeat chorus) Nobody claims that it's over and done There's too much depends on enlistment and guns And raising their children and filling their plates And chasing the Contras to Washington State The Yankee conspiracy thrown to the ground That's where the spirit of change can be found (Repeat chorus)
