Lyrics
Amber And The Amberines
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.
Here's to the Fidel few
Clearing road and landslide
Children of history
Not just because Che Guevara showed the way
Not just to shame the C.I.A.
Everyone needs to feel at home
Nobody wins who fights alone
Here's to the N.J.M.
Planning for the future
Women and men who dared raise our aspirations
Not just because Maurice Bishop told them to
Not just to change the western view
Everyone needs to feel at home
And here's to our friends like Chris
Working in the classrooms
London to Mozambique
Nursing wounds of empire
Not just because revolution paved the way
Not just to be there on the day
Everyone needs to feel at home
And nobody wins who fights alone
