A song for the Cuban Revolution

1. Fidel Castro
A Song for the Cuban Revolution
By: Alexis Carswell

2. Our fight began with the death of our brothers
A revolution crushed before it had begun
But the words of a leader still hovers
History will absolve me, I will not run

3. Fidel, can you hear the voices
Fidel, the sound of hearts rising up
Fidel, join us in fighting oppression
We ride out into the Cuban sun
*In background of chorus is chanting “Fidel, Fide
Fidel” till the chorus is done*

4. The people stand fearless beside us
Such loyalty is not shown on the other side
For they have no cause of which to fight for their
Hearts are cold while ours run hot with blood

5. Fidel, can you hear the voices
Fidel, the sound of hearts rising u
Fidel, join us in fighting oppressio
We ride out into the Cuban sun
* chanting “Fidel, Fidel, Fidel” throug
Tell us where will you be when alls sa
done?

6. Old Batista is waiting
The dictator reformer he rose
Up through our army then made
A so-called “democratic constitution”

7. Fidel, can you hear the voices
Fidel, the sound of hearts rising up
Fidel, join us in fighting oppression
We ride out into the Cuban sun
* chanting “Fidel, Fidel, Fidel” throughout*

8. These reforms turned corrupt
Like everything else, Batista would
Return, but corruption reigns
Fidel, where have you gone?

9. Fidel, can you hear the voices
Fidel, the sound of hearts rising up
Fidel, join us in fighting oppression
We ride out into the Cuban sun
* chanting “Fidel, Fidel, Fidel” throughout*

10. They say you are gone
To Mexico and Guevara
But we know not
When you return

11. Fidel, can you hear the voices
Fidel, the sound of hearts rising up
Fidel, join us in fighting oppression
We ride out into the Cuban sun
*chanting “Fidel, Fidel, Fidel” throughout*
Tell us where will you be when alls said and
done?
