Tears Of Sorrow Lyrics

(Spoken) on your feet you filthy peasants or by god you will feel my lash!

Trabajar (work) y morir (and die)
Sin esperanza (with no hope)

Trabajar y morir
Sin esperanza

Trabajar y morir

First they drag you to your feet
Then they lash you till you fall
And the worst part of it all
Is there's nothing left to eat

We hear our children cry
As we watch our menfolk die
There's no justice anymore
And especially for the poor

Tears of sorrow
Tears of sorrow
Tears of sorrow
Steal our hopes and kill our dreams

Tears of sorrow
Tears of sorrow
Tears of sorrow
Steal our hopes and kill our dreams

We came to california
Called the land of golden dreams
Yet once again we're crushed beneath
Another tyrants schemes
Mexico's no better it's another world gone mad
Civil war and revolution destroyed everything we had

Tears of sorrow
Tears of sorrow
Tears of sorrow
Steal our hopes and kill our dreams

Trabajar y morir sin esperanza
Trabajar y morir sin esperanza
Trabajar y morir sin esperanza

So we struggle to survive
As the rich and evil thrive
We're the children of the dung
To be beaten starved and hung

We've got no place else to go
It's the only life we know
So we struggle and we pray
To survive another day
To survive another day

Years of
Fears of
Tears of

Sorrow - like the rich will never see
Sorrow - as we struggle endlessly
Sorrow - with no hope or chance to be
Free
Free
Free

Tears of sorrow (trabahar)
Tears of sorrow
Tears of sorrow
Steal our hopes (y morrir)
And kill our dreams

Tears of sorrow (trabahar)
Tears of sorrow
Tears of sorrow
Steal our hopes (y morrir)
And kill our dreams

Please god
Give us back
Our dreams-----trabajar y morir sin esperanza
