George Baker Selection - Fly away little paraquayo lyrics

They come in white boats many years ago They gave you presents and promised you a lot But they lock you on a chain Put you in a mine And a sad word for the glory of our time Fly away little Paraguayo Spread your wings out to the sky Fly away little Paraguayo 'Cause the white men's on the ride And your body is so hungry And your mind is filled with fear Fly away little Paraguayo 'Cause the soldiers soon be here They said you're just an indian Not better than a beast Only good for working like a slave And so you're sweat and run 'Til the day is done While you know you could be better in your grave Fly away little Paraguayo Spread your wings out to the sky Fly away little Paraguayo 'Cause the white men's on the ride And your body is so hungry And your mind is filled with fear Fly away little Paraguayo 'Cause the soldiers soon be here Fly away little Paraguayo Spread your wings out to the sky Fly away little Paraguayo 'Cause the white men's on the ride And your body is so hungry And your mind is filled with fear Fly away little Paraguayo 'Cause the soldiers soon be here
