In Spain

1

In Spain there’s a valley called Jarama

Where they fought in the days of my youth

The fellow travellers had better be silent

I’m about to tell you the truth

 

2

It was there that they smashed our collectives

And they put down the workers who rose

And they plundered Spain’s free reconstruction

And betrayed us to Fascistic foes.

 

3

Who committed these terrible actions

And to Spain’s revolution dismay

Why the treacherous Communist Party

And it’s internal friction brigade.

 

4

I shall never trust ex-party members

Who committed this treason in Spain

Oh ! I hope every worker remembers

For the bastards would do it again.
