Thousands of miles away and I cannot get a job  Well I'd rather be fighting in Lima 'cause my  back's against the wall. There's a broken old  mill town here, and a ratty village there that  seized the lion's den while they were eating  the lion's share.  Support Peruvian rebels.  The political prisoners must be let go. "Cause  as they wine and dine their way they steal  the food right from your throat. Have they ever  been hungry? Have they ever been cold? Heads  of the state held hostage in their own home  You can claim you're Red or Black now.  But both get scarred by the whip they crack out  Some are age 14 with a mind and a gun yeah  The most beautiful sight under the sun yeah  And the message won't be lost. For the mighty  hours that you fought out there. We'll pass and  kick the word along now. With the roots and  folklore of this song now  We'll take your message to our streets...  Support Peruvian rebels.
