(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
