Years ago we were born in the valley of our fathers We grew up with the trees Where strong winds used to blow oh, sing this song with us children of this valley o We went to school to learn this life And what we need to survive That Lenin, Marx and Co. is our biggest foe sing this song with us children of this valley o We all had dreams for our way, we tried to reach for the stars Big train driver, deep sea diver, pretty girls, expensive cars At fifteen we must decide what to do our whole life long I was too small for the police what a shame, dont get me wrong So I sold clothes in a suit to rich people, those were the days But three years later I said goodbye, I was looking for new ways ...for new ways One friend of mine went to Berlin to change the world and paint the wall Maybe this was the cause, maybe more, for the wall to fall With this money gone, had too much fun, he sold his body to the industry They gave him money, gave him drugs, they took his dream to be free That was the last Ive ever heard of him, maybe all were just lies But when Im served in his parents shop, I just see sadness in their eyes ...in their eyes
valley, sold, maybe, lenin, marx
