STRAY BULLET
STRAY BULLET
In the tall grass we held hands
Down by the river we made plans
Of what would and would not be
It was impossible to see
Their black boots shone in the sun
They were waiting on the Annandale train
Down by the river we made plans
Of what would and would not be
It was impossible to see
Their black boots shone in the sun
They were waiting on the Annandale train
When my baby come
Little girl with the long black hair
Do you know what lies
Little girl with the long black hair
Do you know what lies
'neath the long coats that they wear
Once I swore you'd ride with me
Once I swore you'd ride with me
(To some far and distant shore)
Down where this river meets the sea
Down where this river meets the sea
(I'll make you mine forevermore)
Over these dark hills I'd walk along
Over these dark hills I'd walk along
(Just to hold you in my arms)
To lie with you on a bed of stone
River blood red with the years
You can flood this valley with a thousand tears
Wash away all that's been found
But you'll never wash away the sound
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
To lie with you on a bed of stone
River blood red with the years
You can flood this valley with a thousand tears
Wash away all that's been found
But you'll never wash away the sound
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
(Stray bullet shot my baby down)
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
(Stray bullet shot my baby down)
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
(Stray bullet shot my baby down)
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
Of the stray bullet that shot my baby down
BALA PERDIDA
Entre la hierba nos abrazamos
En la orilla del río hicimos planes
Sobre lo que ocurriría y lo que no
Pero era imposible de predecir
Sus botas negras relucían bajo el sol
Mientras esperaban al tren de
Annandale
En el que ella llegaba
La chica de largo pelo negro
¿Sabes lo que esconden
Bajo esas gabardinas que llevan?
Una vez juré que huirías conmigo
(Hacia alguna tierra lejana)
Donde el río se encuentra con el mar
(Para estar juntos para siempre)
Paseando sobre esas colinas negras
(Tenerte entre mis brazos)
Y acostarnos en una cama de piedra
Un antiguo río rojo de sangre
Puede inundar este valle con un millar
de lágrimas
Y borrar todo aquello conocido
Pero nunca podrá borrar el sonido
De aquella bala perdida que mató a mi
chica
(Una bala perdida mató a mi chica)
De aquella bala perdida que mató a mi
chica
(Una bala perdida mató a mi chica)
De aquella bala perdida que mató a mi
chica
(Una bala perdida mató a mi chica)
De aquella bala perdida que mató a mi
chica

PARTY LIGHTS
PARTY LIGHTS
I know the girls they grow up fast where
you come from
You left behind what was asked
You left behind what was asked
And you were married baby oh so young
Now that little girl of yours looks like
Now that little girl of yours looks like
She's growing up overnight
But do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
He was gonna be your Romeo
But do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
He was gonna be your Romeo
You were gonna be his Juliet
These days you don't wait on Romeos
These days you don't wait on Romeos
You just wait on that welfare check
While other girls your age are out
While other girls your age are out
With lovers taking in the night
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
Sometimes I see you on the street and you look so tired
I know that job you've got leaves you so uninspired
When I stop by to take you out to eat
I find you lying, all dressed up on the bed
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
Sometimes I see you on the street and you look so tired
I know that job you've got leaves you so uninspired
When I stop by to take you out to eat
I find you lying, all dressed up on the bed
Baby, fast asleep
Then as I lean across the bed, darling
Then as I lean across the bed, darling
To switch out the light
I wonder if you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
Grab your coat, grab your hat, go in the bathroom
I wonder if you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
Grab your coat, grab your hat, go in the bathroom
Put that make up on
We're gonna take that little brat
We're gonna take that little brat
We're gonna drop her off at your mom's
Yeah just give me a sign
Yeah just give me a sign
I'm waiting on the line tonight
If you miss the party lights
If you miss the party lights
If you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
Do you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
If you miss the party lights
If you miss the party lights
If you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
Do you miss the party lights
When you're lying in bed at night
Do you miss the party lights
Do you miss the party lights
LUCES DE FIESTA
Las chicas pronto se hacen mayores de
donde vienes
Olvidaste lo que pedían
Y te casaste, querida, tan joven
Ahora esa hijita tuya parece
Que va creciendo por la noche
Pero, ¿añoras las luces de fiesta?
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?
Al acostarte en la cama por la noche
Él iba a ser tu Romeo
Y tú, su Julieta
Ahora ya no esperas a Romeos
Sino a tu cheque del subsidio
Mientras otras chicas de tu edad salen
Con sus amantes por la noche
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?
Al acostarte en la cama por la noche
A veces te observo por la calle y
pareces tan cansada
Sé que ese trabajo que tienes te deja
sin fuerzas
Cuando me paro para llevarte a cenar
Te encuentro vestida sobre la cama
Cariño, durmiendo
Y mientras me inclino sobre tu cama
Para apagar las luces
Me pregunto si añoras las luces de
fiesta
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?
Al acostarte en la cama por la noche
Coge el abrigo, el sombrero, entra en
el baño
Y ponte el maquillaje
Nos llevaremos a esa mocosa
Y la dejaremos en casa de tu madre
Sí, dame sólo una señal
Esta noche estoy esperando
Si añoras las luces de fiesta
Si añoras las luces de fiesta
Si añoras las luces de fiesta
Al acostarte en la cama por la noche
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?
Al acostarte en la cama por la noche
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?
¿Añoras las luces de fiesta?

CHAIN LIGHTNING
CHAIN LIGHTNING
Well there's a rumble in the park
There's a thunder in the dark
The night's so quiet, it's chain lightning
Beneath a street light two boys bopping in the night
They have something in 'em called chain lightning
Though you never hear a sound
The night's so quiet, it's chain lightning
Beneath a street light two boys bopping in the night
They have something in 'em called chain lightning
Though you never hear a sound
There's a fire underground
Rambling through the town
Rambling through the town
You can't keep it from coming down
Lovers walking through the mist
Lovers walking through the mist
Romeo he steal a kiss
Caught up in the moment of chain lightning
Now I don't know about romance
Caught up in the moment of chain lightning
Now I don't know about romance
But baby it's the latest thing
Everybody's getting up, doing it, chain lightning
All along the strand baby down in jungleland
Everybody's caught up in chain lightning
Ever hear the sound of a fire underground
Rumbling through the town
Everybody's getting up, doing it, chain lightning
All along the strand baby down in jungleland
Everybody's caught up in chain lightning
Ever hear the sound of a fire underground
Rumbling through the town
The big cold is coming down
Sitting at the light, I'm a rider in the night
Streaking light to light for chain lightning
I ain't into style, baby, ain't into fashion
I just got a passion for chain lightning
Sitting at the light, I'm a rider in the night
Streaking light to light for chain lightning
Sitting at the light, I'm a rider in the night
Streaking light to light for chain lightning
I ain't into style, baby, ain't into fashion
I just got a passion for chain lightning
Sitting at the light, I'm a rider in the night
Streaking light to light for chain lightning
CENTELLAS
Hay un rugido en el parque
Hay un trueno en la oscuridad
La noche está en silencio, centellas
Bajo las luces de la calle dos chicos gritan en la noche
Poseen algo a lo que llaman centellas
Aunque nunca oigas el sonido
La noche está en silencio, centellas
Bajo las luces de la calle dos chicos gritan en la noche
Poseen algo a lo que llaman centellas
Aunque nunca oigas el sonido
Hay un fuego subterráneo
Retumbando por la ciudad
Retumbando por la ciudad
No puedes evitar su llegada
Amantes caminando en la niebla
Amantes caminando en la niebla
Romeo roba un beso
Lo atrapa aprovechando las centellas
Yo no sé nada de aventuras
Lo atrapa aprovechando las centellas
Yo no sé nada de aventuras
Pero es la última moda
Todos enloquecen contemplando las centellas
En cualquier rincón de la tierra de la jungla
Quedan atrapados por las centellas
¿Has oído el sonido del fuego subterráneo
Retumbando por la ciudad?
Todos enloquecen contemplando las centellas
En cualquier rincón de la tierra de la jungla
Quedan atrapados por las centellas
¿Has oído el sonido del fuego subterráneo
Retumbando por la ciudad?
El frío intenso se acerca
Ante el semáforo, soy un jinete en la noche
Surcando de una luz a otra como centellas
No tengo estilo, no voy a la moda
Mi único deseo son las centellas
Ante el semáforo, soy un jinete en la noche
Surcando de una luz a otra como centellas
Ante el semáforo, soy un jinete en la noche
Surcando de una luz a otra como centellas
No tengo estilo, no voy a la moda
Mi único deseo son las centellas
Ante el semáforo, soy un jinete en la noche
Surcando de una luz a otra como centellas

WHITETOWN
WHITETOWN
Mary Ann on the avenue
Girl all dress up in Kensington blue
Down where the hammer falls
She's born and bred
Within Whitetown's walls
Each and everything
Slowly passes away
She moves all along the narrow streets
From a passing car
She hears the music play
Beneath the "El" she starts to sway
Down in Whitetown
Oh, yeah!
Down in Whitetown
Oh, yeah!
Down in Whitetown
Johnny's just trying to make his way
He's got a job, and mister, it don't pay
He sits and counts the scars
On the stool down the end of Whitetown bar
And the old men here
Piss their lives away
Drinking and jokin'
About their cop-fightin' days
Ain’t no answers here
Just the past and fear
Of spendin' the rest of your days
Down in Whitetown
Oh, yeah!
Down in Whitetown
Oh, yeah!
Down in Whitetown
In a dream salvation come
With a beat
Or the sound of breaking glass
And running feet
The beat that echoes down
Through the streets
Mary Ann dances on
Down in Whitetown
Oh, yeah!
Down in Whitetown

WHITETOWN
Mary Ann, en la avenida
La chica triste de Kensington
Allí donde cae el martillo
Ella nació y se crió
Entre los muros de Whiteown
Todos sus recuerdos
Van muriendo lentamente
Se desliza entre las calles estrechas
Y desde un coche de paso
Oye la música
Y bajo el “EI” empieza a bailar
En Whitetown
Oh,sí!
En Whitetow
Oh,sí!
En Whitetow
Johnny intenta ganarse la vida
Tiene trabajo, pero no es suficiente
Se sienta y cuenta las cicatrices
En el taburete en un rincón de un bar de Whitetown
Y los viejos del lugar
Desperdician sus vidas
Bebiendo y bromeando
Sobre sus luchas con la policía
Aquí no hay respuestas
Sólo el pasado y el miedo
De pasar el resto de tus días
En Whitetown
Oh,sí!
En Whitetow
Oh,sí!
En Whitetow
En un sueño llega la salvación
Con un latido
O el sonido de cristales rotos
Y pisadas que huyen
El latido que retumba
Entre las calles
Y Mary Ann baila
En Whitetown
Oh,sí!
En Whitetow
En Whitetow
