Альбом Los Lobos

(feat. Cafe Tacuba)

Nosotros somos los de abajo, y eso no se va negar
Como perros en la noche sin una luna a ladrar.

Estamos 'bajo de los puentes y abajo de la sombra
Abajo de tus narizes y abajo de la alfombra.

[Chorus:]
Pero les digo "tengan cuidado de la venganza que llegara"
La venganza que llegara, la venganza de los pelados.

Nos llaman los pelados, y que el Diablo nos llamo
Pero nadie sabe quien - quien era que nos mando

Ya esconden las memorias y la plata y el pan
Pero para ser seguro nunca poderan

[Chorus]

Pero les digo " tengan cuidado que la venganza ya empezo,"
La venganzan de los pelados, la venganza ya comenzo

The radio's on, the song they play
Can't make no sense of what they say
I couldn't tell you if I knew

Don't understand most things I see
In the blue light of the tv
I couldn't tell you what to do

[Chorus:]
Rita, it all just seems too much
And sometimes maybe not enough
My head is so, so filled up
And Rita, I guess i think too much
Or maybe sometimes not enough
My head is always so filled up

I hold the phone close to my ear
Can't recognize the voice I hear
Couldn't remember what they said

The newspaper stacks up on the step
I can't believe how long I slept
Now why should i get out of bed

[Chorus]

There was a thing floating way up there
Was it a wish or another prayer
It was just stuck up in the air

When it is all finally said and done
I start again where I'd begun
In front of rita when I looked dumb

Climbing high to the mountain top
Reaching up to the sky above
Asking to myself
Is this all there is?

Sailing into the ocean blue
Trying to find at least one clue
On a paper scrawled
Is this all there is?

[Chorus:]
And they all came to talk about it
The came to cry and laught and fight about it
All searching for the promised land
Tired souls with empty hands
Asking to themselves
Is this all there is?

Fifteen years on a sewing machine
Where twisted hands don't mean a thing
Wondering to herself
Is this all there is?

Baby crying in an old tin cup
Wanting more but there's never enough
While her mother sighs
Is this all there is?

[Chorus]

My mouth is dry
My head is hot
Somebody tell me just what is this thing I've got

Doctor Doctor
Help me please
This spell has got me dropped down to my knees

[Chorus:]
Talkin' 'bout charmed baby
Talkin' 'bout charmed baby
Talkin' 'bout charmed baby
Talkin' 'bout charmed baby

Must be a potion
Gotta be a pill
Gotta be somethin' that can cure me of these chills

Doctor help me
What do you say
"There ain't nothin' that can make this go away"

[Chorus:]
Talkin' 'bout charmed baby
Talkin' 'bout charmed baby
Talkin' 'bout charmed baby
Talkin' 'bout charmed baby

(feat. Dave Alvin)

I hear a voice singing somewhere in time
A song I knew so long ago
It takes me back to places somewhere in time
To everyone I used to know

I see a face I remember somewhere in time
Someone I love who's gone away
Gone away somewhere in time
Gone away somewhere in time

Another night, on a highway somewhere in time
Darkness plays those tricks on me
Far down the road in the shadows somewhere in time
Am I the man I'm supposed to be?

I see a light, shining somewhere in time
A lonely light to lead me on
To lead me on somewhere in time
To lead me on somewhere in time

Wake from a dream, a dream from somewhere in time
I rub my eyes so I can see
You're standing there before me somewhere in time
Standing there waiting for me

And I'll take your hand someday somewhere in time
Forever I'll be here with you
I'll be with you somewhere in time
I'll be with you somewhere in time
I'm here with you somewhere in time

I hear thunder
Looks like the rain
Is gonna start falling
Rain, falling from the sky

Rain, rain, rain, a wicked rain
Falling from the sky
Down, down, down, pouring down
Upon the night
Well there's just one chance in a million
That someday we'll make it out alive

Rain, rain, rain an evil rain
Falling all the time
Sun, sun, sun, sun
Don't you ever want to shine
Well there'll be no light in the morning
Till some peace at last we find

Like travellers in the darkness
Can't see our way
Trying hard to make it through
Another day

Father, father, father
Why do you let your sons go astray
Brother, brother, brother
Why must we go on this way
There's a storm off in the distance
And it looks like it's here to stay

I was the third brother of five
Doing whatever I had to do to survive
I'm not saying what I did was alright
Tryin' to break out of the ghetto
Was a day to day fight

Bein' down so long
Getting' up didn't cross my mind
But I knew there was a better way of life
And I was just tryin' to find
You don't know what you're doin'
Till you're put under pressure
Across 100 and Tenth Street
Is a hell of a tester

Across 100 and Tenth Street
Pimps tryin' to catch a woman that's weak
Across 100 and Tenth Street
Pushers won't let the junkie go free
Across 100 and Tenth Street
A woman tryin' to catch a trick on the street
Across 100 and Tenth Street
You can find it all

Hey Brother, there's a better way out
Snorting that coke, shooting that dope
Man, you're coppin' out
Take my advice, it's either live or die
You gotta be strong if you wanna survive
The family up on the other side of town
Will catch hell if I don't get around
In ev'ry city you'll find the same thing goin' down
Harlem is the capital of ev'ry ghetto town

Across 100 and Tenth Street
Pimps tryin' to catch a woman that's weak
Across 100 and Tenth Street
Pushers won't let the junkie go free
Across 100 and Tenth Street
You can find it all

Across 100 and Tenth Street
Let the sun, let the sun shine down
Across 100 and Tenth Street
Like travellers in the darkness
Can't see our way
Across 100 and Tenth Street
Trying hard to make it
Make it through another day
Oh, stop the rain
Somebody stop the rain
Across 100 and Tenth Street
A little more love and a little less pain

(feat. Tom Waits and Martha Gonzalez)

Oyes hombre!
Que fregado estas haciendo aplastado en ese chair
With headphones on?!!
Did you take out the trash?
Did you feed the dog?
What about the gato?
Did you mow the lawn?
Did you bring in the ropa?
Did you water the plantas?
How 'bout the dishes?
Did you fix the faucet?
Ayy que voy hacer contigo!

Ayy dios mio!
It's five o'clock in the afternoon and you got the chavalos
Still in your p-jays!!!
What did you do all day?!!
Did you go to the market
Tomaste toda la leche
Comistes las tortillas
Y tambien el pan
Acabaste el jugo
Y el diet pepsi
Y todo los fruit roll-ups
Hijole! Que voy hacer contigo!

All avenues lead to one
Baby you can walk or run
Get there first or next or last, it don't matter

Take it slow or take it fast
You cannot overtake your past
Can't hurry up tomorrow, Let it come

Hurry up tomorrow, I don't know
Where love's gone or where it still may go
I can see the raindrops roll
Down my bedroom window slow
Like they're strumming, on the guitar of my soul

Hurry Tomorrow
Hurry Up

Hurry up another day
Let the guitar player play
Music makes it seem alright while it's playing

Should I stand or should I speak?
Hold me up my knees are weak
Dancing cheek to cheek with you
After midnight

Hurry up tomorrow, I don't know
Where love's gone or where it still may go
I can see the raindrops roll
Down my bedroom window slow
Like they're strumming, like they're strumming on my soul
On the heartstrings of my soul (optional)

Hurry Tomorrow
Hurry Up

Hurry up tomorrow, I don't know
Where love's gone or where it still may go
I can see the raindrops roll/down my bedroom window slow
Like they're strumming, like they're strumming, on my soul

Hurry Tomorrow
Hurry it slow
Hurry tomorrow, oh yeah

(feat. Ruben Blades)

El que no se arriesga nunca aprende nada
Quien no busca puerta no hallara la entrada
En amor se apuesta entregando el alma
Y como nos cuesta, cuando nos enganan

A veces resulta incuficiente la voluntad
Si de otro depende la realidad, por eso entiendo,
Y explicaselo al corazon, que solo aprende
El que arriesga su razon.

El que nada intenta nunca hara camino
Nuestras decisiones van creando sestino
Asi fue conmigo

Eterna amargura la que nos deja el amor que no madura
Que malo sabe el dolor

Ya se va, me deja en la soledad, sufriendo

Se va perdiendo la fe, quedas diciendo, amor pa que
Buscando el consuelo en el licor
Recordando lo que el tiempo se llevo

Sobre la ausencia
Queda el recuerdo
Y la sentencia
Del sufrimiento

Oye hermano, es que la vida es asi
Y hasta un lobo puede morir de amor

Me embarca y se aleja,me olvida y me deja
Como a sinbad el marino, en el mar de la ansiedad

Dentro de la carcel de la memoria voy repitiendo
La historia que me condena en la eternidad

Tristeza llega, me abraza y me aprieta y no se despega
Y no me deja contrar la felicidad

Ya no estas mas a mi lado corazon, en el alma solo siento soledad

(feat. Richard Thompson)

Fifty traveling to work the fields
Toil the factories and sweat the steel

Set out to sail from Santa Rosalie
I left you a note tacked to a tree

Adios querida
I'll return one day
Now I'm leaving on the Carlos Rey

Four cruel days under stormy skies
Not much bread to keep us alive

The wind kicked up and the rain came down
Then we all heard a terrible sound

Adios querida
Nothing more to say
I'm lost in the wreck of the Carlos Rey

I struggled against the pull of the tide
I clutched my bag with your picture inside

But my heart did break as it slipped away
Disappearing into the gray

Adios querida
I've gone to stay
Down in the wreck of the Carlos Rey

In the dark and cold I let you go
With the hunk of wood that I took hold

I sleep in a bed of salt and sand
And dream sweet dreams of taking your hand

Adios querida
I'm gone away
Down in the wreck of the Carlos Rey

(feat. Mavis Staples)

Someday I will go home
Someday I will go home
And I'll find peace in the house
Of my heavenly father
I will fear, fear no more

I know down in my heart
I know it won't be long
And I shall see the face
Of my savior
I will fear, I will fear
I will fear, pain no more

Someday, I will go home
Someday, I will go home
And I shall take the hand
Of my savior
I will fear, I will fear
I will fear, pain no more
I, I will fear, I will fear
Pain no more

Driving home
Driving home
I'm driving home

I'm a prisoner here
By your design
And the key to the door
Oh I can't find

Closin' in here, baby
Are these four walls
Not even a dime will you give me
To make my one call

I don't know
What a man's suppose to do
When the joy is gone
Gone away from you

[Chorus:]
Ain't no hammer, ain't no rock
Can break the lock on these chains
These chains of love

I drag down the boulevard
This ball of steel
And the ties that bind me
Girl, are all too real

I gotta go free
Like a bird up in the air
Like a child in the school yard
Without a care

[Chorus:]
Ain't no hammer, ain't no rock
Can break the lock on these chains
Ain't no spell none I can tell
Can take away these chains
Ain't no how to get out
Outta these chains of love
These chains of love

[Bridge:]
Look at the clock
So much time
I Look again
And the hands are stopped

[Chorus:]
Ain't no hammer, ain't no rock
Can break the lock on these chains
Ain't no spell none I can tell
Can take away these chains
Ain't no how to get out
Outta these chains of love
These chains of love
Outta these chains of love
These chains of love
