Natalya From The Volga

Take me from the volga
Take me from this frozen waste
Take me from the volga
Help me get away
From this oppresive state

Can't speak a word
Can't say anything
Stasi's got its ears on everything

Don't read the wrong press
Or offend the red fist
Your name will not be heard
Except on gulag lists

Take me from the volga
Take me from this frozen waste
Take me from the volga
Help me get away
From this oppresive state

It's a red state
Not a state of mind
It's a red state
Not a state that's kind
It's a red state
It's frozen in time
It's a red state
It's just not mine'

One day soon
The wall will come down
So I will return to my hometown
I'm not a hero of the mother state
Just another slat miner
With built up hate

Take me from the volga
Take me from this frozen waste
Take me from the volga
Help me get away
From this oppresive state

Take me from the volga
Take me from this frozen waste
Take me from the volga
Help me get away
From this oppresive state
