Bullets Of Mexico (Unreleased LP Version) - Phil Ochs[00:00:00]

The peons of mexico long have known suffering and pain [00:00:15]

Zapata and villa have died there fighting in vain [00:00:20]

Ruben jaramillo kept up the tradition [00:00:26]

He fought for the land once again [00:00:28]

He lived for the land [00:00:31]

And there on the land he was slain [00:00:32]

A forty-five bullet has ended the life of a man[00:00:37]

Who had lived by the gun [00:00:40]

But all of the bullets of mexico[00:00:42]

Cannot undo all the work that he's done [00:00:44]

The greedy capiques have stolen[00:00:51]

And plundered the land [00:00:52]

With pistoleros they ruled with a cold iron hand [00:00:56]

The poor campesinos could stand it no longer [00:01:02]

Resistance was starting to grow [00:01:04]

Jaramillo decided to fight for a new mexico [00:01:07]

A forty-five bullet has ended the life of a man[00:01:13]

Who had lived by the gun [00:01:16]

But all of the bullets of mexico[00:01:18]

Cannot undo all the work that he's done [00:01:20]

For twenty long years[00:01:26]

He fought and he struggled and tried [00:01:28]

(Effe bonilla) His wife always there at his side [00:01:32]

Often surrounded he always was hounded [00:01:38]

They searched for him near far and wide[00:01:40]

A man of deep sorrow [00:01:43]

But also a man of deep pride [00:01:45]

A forty-five bullet has ended the life of a man[00:01:49]

Who had lived by the gun [00:01:52]

But all of the bullets of mexico[00:01:54]

Cannot undo all the work that he's done [00:01:57]

Two thousand peasants he led to their long-promised land [00:02:03]

And the armys revenge killed the wife[00:02:08]

And the sons and the man [00:02:10]

His assasins rejoiced with their whiskey and women [00:02:14]

They laughed and they danced on his grave [00:02:17]

Now the land waits again[00:02:20]

For another to ride on the waves [00:02:21]

A forty-five bullet has ended the life of a man[00:02:26]

Who had lived by the gun [00:02:29]

But all of the bullets of mexico[00:02:31]

Cannot undo all the work that he's done[00:02:34]
