Lyrics
CIUDAD DE BARCELONA (Faulkner)
Better to die on your feet Comrade
Join The Brigade - Join The Brigade
Than to live on your knees forever a slave
Join The Brigade, sail to fascist Iberian plains
Young Robert Macdonald marched off to Spain
With The International Brigade - The International
The International Brigade - The International
Off to Marseille where their passage lay
Sailed The Brigade - Sailed The Brigade
250 brave stowaways
To lemon groves stained blood red with Republican hearts
The Ciudad De Barcelona sailed
With The International Brigade - The International
The International Brigade - The International
Off shore at Malgrat the explosion rang
Mourn The Brigade - Mourn The Brigade
As the ship went down there a chorus sang
"For freedom, for liberty, in solidarity's name"
The Ciudad De Barcelona sank
With The International Brigade - The International
The International Brigade - The International
