Opportunity (1940)

Lyrics
Hardships faced. We've been disgraced Our plans for the land are degraded by menacing hands But history's compelling us and telling us to do it all again As far as I can see, everything that we had believed Is more true now than ever before And if the truth be known, we'd do it all again We got low, down in Mexico It seems so far after having been so close We got low, down in Mexico We lost everything except the things that matter most Bureaucracy and hypocrisy are contagious and make us all victims eventually You can take my life from me, but we'll do it all again The seeds of truth will grow People all will know of the visions that we have endeavored to show And like the river, we will flow We'll do it all again We got low, down in Mexico It seems so far after having been so close We got low, down in Mexico We lost everything except the things that matter most Faceless men who represent no idea or purpose intend To prevent devolution though revolution But we'd do it all again Even when I die, I hope you wouldn't cry For my life has been happily spent in the struggle... And I love you, so I'd do it all again We got low, down in Mexico It seems so far after having been so close We got low, down in Mexico We lost everything except the things that matter most
