Album: Evita (vol. 2)

On The Balcony Of The Casa Rosada 2 [Jonathan Pryce]

[Eva:]

Just listen to that, the voice of Argentina

We are adored, we are loved

[Officer:]

Statesmanship is more than entertaining peasants

[Eva's sister:]

We shall see little man

[Crowd:]

Evita Peron, La Santa Peronista ...

[Eva:]

I am only a simple woman

Who lives to serve Peron in his noble crusade

To rescue his people

I was once as you are now, and I promise you this

We will take the riches from the obligarchs

Only for you, for all of you

And one day, you too will inherit these treasures

Descamisados, mis companeros

When they fire those cannons, when the crowds sing of glory

It is not just for Peron, but for all of us, for all of us

[Aristocrats:]

Things have reached a pretty pass

When someone pretty lower-class

Can be respected and admired

[Aristocrat:]

But our privileged class is dead

Look who they are calling for now
