[CHOIR]
Respice, quaesumus, Domine
Famulam tuam Evita
In infirmitate
Et animam refove, quam creasti
Ut castigationibus emendata
Se tua sentiat medicina salvatum
Per Christum, Dominum
Qui vivit et regnat
Per omnia saecula saeculorum
Amen

[CHE]
She had her moments, she had some style
The best show in town was the crowd
Outside the Casa Rosada crying, "Eva Perón"
But that's all gone now

[MAGALDI]
Hey Eva, beware your ambition
It's hungry and cold—can't be controlled, will run wild
This in a man is a danger enough
But you are a woman

[GETTA & WORKERS]
A new Argentina!
The voice of the people
Cannot be
And will not be
And must not be
Denied!
[OFFICER]
Statesmanship is more than entertaining peasants

[THE MANAGER OF THE FOUNDATION EVA PERÓN]
Accountants only slow things down, figures get in the way
Never been a lady loved as much as Eva Perón!

[PERÓN]
High flying, adored
So young, the instant queen
A rich beautiful thing of all the talents
A cross between
A fantasy of the bedroom and a saint
And you were just a backstreet girl
Hustling and fighting
Scratching and biting

High flying, adored
Did you believe in your wildest moments
All this would be yours?
That you'd become the lady of them all?
Were there stars in your eyes—
