Mal Sacate Lyrics - Kris Kristofferson

Mr. money man, I know you've had your way 

And I know the way you're winning 

And that bloody hand you're holding 

Ain't no bargain at the price you had to pay 

You have stolen all the land that you can steal 

And you killed so many heroes 

But the dreams they left behind them 

Ain't as easy as a man to blow away 

Chorus: 

And they say, "el mal sacate ni el fuego lo quema" 

And los mexicanos dicen, "cosa mala nunca muere" 

Don't you know ?

The fire don't burn a bad weed boy 

And a bad thing never dies 

Like the bad weeds growing wild around 

The broken wounded body of el salvador 

They killed so many heroes 

Like zapata (presente!) and fonseca (presente!) 

And sandino (presente!) and guevarra (presente!) 

And allende (presente!) and aquino (presente!) 

And steve biko (presente!) 

But they can never kill the human spirit 

Not in nicaragua !
