Ballad Of The Cuban Invasion Lyrics: Phil Ochs

RingtonesSend "Ballad Of The Cuban Invasion" Ringtone to your Cell PhoneRingtones
A thousand went to take the island
Chances strong(? ) as broken twigs
And a thousand stayed there at the island
Met their fate fate at the bay of pigs

They were told when they arrived
Theyd be helped by castros men
But they found out, those who survived
That the cia was wrong again

Why were they wearing my country clothes?
Why were they spending my countrys gold?
Who were the friends and who were the foes?
The headlines were lying, why wasnt I told?

(repeat first verse)
