Lyrics
The Partisan
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
As they poured across the border
I was cautioned to surrender
This i could not do
I took my gun and vanished
I have changed my name so often
I have lost a wife and children
But i have many friends
And some of them are with me
The wind the wind is blowing
Through the graves the wind is blowing
Freedom soon will come
Then we'll come from the shadows
Oh, the wind the wind is blowing
Through the graves the wind is blowing
Freedom soon will come
Then we'll come from the shadows
