A New Argentina

A new Argentina, the chains of the masses untied

A new Argentina, the voice of the people

Cannot be, and will not be, and must not be denied.

There again I could be foolish not to quit while I'm ahead

I can see me many miles away, inactive

Sipping cocktails on a terrace, taking breakfast in bed

Sleeping easy, doing crosswords, it's attractive

Don't think I don't think like you

I often get those nightmares too

They always take some swallowing

Sometimes it's very difficult to keep momentum

If it's you that you are following

Don't close doors, keep an escape clause

Because we might lose the Big Apple

But would I have done what I did

If I hadn't thought, if I hadn't known

We would take the country

A new Argentina, the chains of the masses untied

A new Argentina, the voice of the people

Cannot be, and will not be, and must not be denied.
