[Verse 1]
Words to describe Nicaragua of old
Cash crops and hunger and US control
Coffee and sugar on company land
Made to supply what the boss would demand
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Then one July morning in '79
Nicaragua decided to leave it behind
[Chorus]
And the people are learning to take back their lives
As the country will change, Sandinista survives
[Verse 2]
Women are winning what they've never known
The power to organize outside the home
Starting to find what is equal and fair
Ensuring that this revolution is shared
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Regaining lost chances, demanding much more
Running the factories, fighting the war
[Chorus]
And the people are learning to take back their lives
As the country will change, Sandinista survives
