El Salvador (Album Version)

by Garland Jeffreys

Lyrics
Lay me down fast asleep at night
Take me round, hold me tight
Most of all, please protect my child
Watch on her until the morning light
Danger lurks from behind the bush
Nerves will fray, blood will rush
Victims of another terrorist style
Homeless angels on the run

El Salvador
El Salvador
El Salvador
El Salvador

Walking proud on my wedding day
Memories I recall
Bride and groom go marching down the aisle
Celebrate with trumpet call
Heartless crimes lately fill my dreams
Headlines scream across the world
Life lines end but feeling endless foul
Widows rise under the sun

El Salvador
El Salvador
El Salvador
El Salvador
