Evita Soundtrack (Part 1)

Peron: People of Europe
I send you the rainbow of Argentina

Che: Spain has fallen to the charms of Evita
She can do what she likes it doesn't matter much

Advisor: She's our lady of the new world with a golden touch
She filled a bullring 45,000 seater

Che: But if you're prettier than General Franco
That's not hard

Advisor: Franco's reign in Spain should see out the '40s
So you've just acquired an ally who
Looks as secure in his job as you
But more important current political thought is
Your wife's a phenominal asset your trump card

All: Let's hear it for the rainbow tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure we had a few doubts
Will Evita win through
But the answer is yes

Peron: There you are I told you so
Makes no difference where she goes
The whole world over just the same
Just listen to them call her name
And who would underestimate the actress now

Che: Now I don't like to spoil a wonderful story
But the news from Rome isn't quite as good
She hasn't gone down like they thought she would
Italy's unconvinced by Argentine glory
They equate Peron with Mussolini can't think why

Eva: Did you hear that they called me a whore
They actually called me a whore

Evita's escort: But Senora Peron it's an easy mistake
I'm still called an admiral yet I gave up the sea long ago

Advisor: More bad news from Rome she met with the pope
She only got a rosary a kindly word

Che: I wouldn't say the holy father gave her the bird
But papal decorations never a hope

Advisor: She still looked the part in St. Peters
Caught the eye

All: Let's hear it for the rainbow tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure we had a few doubts
Will Evita win through
But the answer is

Che: A qualified yes

Eva started well no question in France
Shining like a sun through the post war haze
A beautiful reminder of the care free days
She nearly captured the French she sure had the chance
But she suddenly seemed to lose interest
She looked tired

Face the facts the rainbow started to fade
I don't think she'll make it to England now

Advisor: It wasn't on the schedule anyhow

Che: You'd better get out the flags and fix a parade
Some kind of coming home in triumph is required

All: Let's hear it for the rainbow tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure we had a few doubts
Will Evita win through
But the answer is yes

Che: A;nd no

Advisor: And yes

Che: And no

Advisor: And yes

Che: And no

Advisor: Let's hear it for the rainbow tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure we had a few doubts
Will Evita win through
But the answer is yes
Yes

Children: Please gentle Eva will you bless a little child
For I love you tell Heaven I'm doing my best
I'm praying for you even though you're already blessed

Please Mother Eva will you look upon me as your own
Make me special
Be my angel be my everything wonderful perfect and true
And I'll try to be exactly like you

Please Mother Eva will you feed a hungry child
For I love you tell Heaven I'm doing my best
I'm praying for you even though you're already blessed

Please gentle Eva will you feed a hungry child
For I love you tell Heaven I'm doing my best
I'm praying for you even though you're already blessed

Che: Turn a blind eye Evita turn a blind eye

Chorus: Santa Santa Evita
Madre de todos lost ninos
De los tiranizados
De los descamisados
De los trabajadores
De la Argentina

Where do we go from here?
This isnt where we intended to be
We had it all, you believed in me
I believed in you.

Certainties disappear
What do we do for our dream to survive?
How do we keep all our passions alive
As we used to do?

bridge:

Deep un my heart i'm concealing
Things that i'm longing to say
Scared to confess what i'm feeling
Frightened you'll slip away.

Chorus:

You must love me
You must love me.

why are you by my side?
How can i be any use to you now?
Give me a chance and i'll let you see how
Nothing has changed.

bridge
chorus

You must love me.

Che: Tell me before I waltz out of your life
Before turning my back on the past
Forgive my impertinent behavior
But how long do you think this pantomime can last

Tell me before I ride off in the sunset
There's one thing I never got clear
How can you claim your our savior
When those who oppose you are stepped on or cut up
Or simply disappear

Eva: Tell me before you get onto your bus
Before joining the forgotten brigade
How can one person like me say
Alter the time honored way the game is played

Tell me before you get onto your high horse
Just what you expect me to do
I don't care what the borguoisie say
I'm not in buisness for them but to give all my descamisados
A magical moment or two

Eva & Che: There is evil ever around
Fundamental system of government quite incidental

Eva: So what are my chances of honest advances
I'd say lo better to win by admitting my sin than to lose with the halo

Che: Tell me before I seek worthier pastures
And thereby restore self esteem
How can you be so short sighted
To look never further than this week or next week
To have no impossible dream

Eva: Allow me to help you slink of to the sidelines
And mark your adeiu with three cheers
But first tell me who'd be delighted
If I said I'd take on the world's greatest problems
From war to polution no hope of solution
Even if I live for 100 years

Eva & Che: There is evil ever around
Fundamental system of government
Quite incidental

Eva: So go if you're able to somewhere unstable and stay there
Whip up your hate in some tottering state
But not here dear
Is that clear dear

Oh what I'd give for a hundred years
But the physical interferes
Everyday more oh my Creator
What is the good of the strongest heart
In a body that's falling apart
A serious flaw I hope you know that

Eva: Peron is everything. He is the soul, the nerve, the hope,
and the reality of the Argentine people. We all know that there is only one man
in our movement with his own source of light, we all feed from his light,

Che: And now she wants to be vice president

Advisors: That was the over the top unacceptable suggestion
We didn't approve but we couldn't prevent the games of the wife of the president
But to give her pretentions encouragement
She's out of her depth and out of the question

Peron: Your little body's slowly breaking down
You're losing speed you're losing strength not style
That goes on flourishing forever but your eyes your smile
Do not have the sparkle of your fantastic past
If you climb one more mountain it could be your last

Eva: I'm not that ill
Bad moments come but they go
Some days are fine
Some a little bit harder
But that doesn't mean we should give up our dream
Have you ever seen me defeated
Don't you forget what I've been through and yet
I'm still standing

Peron: Eva, you are dying.

Eva: So what happens now
Where am I going to

Peron: Don't ask anymore

Che: And the money kept rolling in from every side

Eva's pretty hands reached out and they reached wide
Now you may feel it should have been a voluntary cause
But that's not the point my friends
When the money keeps rolling in you don't ask how
Think of all the people guaranteed a good time now
Eva's called the hungry to her open up the doors
Never been a fund like the Foundation Eva Peron

Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling on in rolling on in rolling on in rolling on in on in

Would you like to try a college education
Own your landlord's house take the family on vacation
Eva and her blessed fund can make your dreams come true
Here's all you have to do my friends
Write your name and your dream on a card or a pad or a ticket
Throw it high into the air and should our lady pick it
She will change your way of life for a week or even two
Name me anyone who cares as much as Eva Peron

Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling on out rolling on out rolling on out rolling on out on out

And the money kept rolling out in all directions
To the poor to the weak to the destitute of all complexions
Now cynics claim a little of the cash has gone astray
But that's not the point my friends
When the money keeps rolling out you don't keep books
You can tell you've done well by the happy grateful looks
Accountants only slow things down figures get in the way
Never been a lady loved as much as Eva Peron

Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling on out rolling on out rolling on out rolling on out on out

Eva

When the money keeps rolling out you don't keep books
You can tell you've done well by the happy grateful looks
Accountants only slow things down figures get in the way
Never been a lady loved as much as Eva Peron

Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling rolling rolling
Rolling on out rolling on out rolling on out rolling on out on out
