Перевод песни El Lute - Boney M.

This is the story of El Lute

A man who was born to be hunted like a wild animal

Because he was poor

But he refused to accept his fate

And today his honor has been restored

He was only nineteen

And he was sentenced to die

For something that somebody else did

And blamed on El Lute

Then they changed it to life

And so he could escape

From then on they chased him

And searched for him day and night all over Spain

But the search was in vain for El Lute

He had only seen the dark side of life

The man they called El Lute

And he wanted a home just like you and like me

In a country where all would be free

Though he taught himself to read and to write

It didn't help El Lute

He was one who had dared to escape overnight

They had to find El Lute

Soon the fame of his name

Spread like wild fire all over the land

With a price on his head people still gave him bread

And they gave him a hand

For they knew he was right

And his fight was their fight

No-one gave you a chance

In the Spain of those days

On the walls every place they had put up

The face of El Lute

And he robbed where he could

Just like once Robin Hood

They finally caught him and that seemed the end

But they caught him in vain

'Cause a change came for Spain

And El Lute

He had only seen the dark side of life

The man they called El Lute

And he wanted a home just like you and like me

In a country where all would be free

And then freedom really came to his land

And also to El Lute

Now he walks in the light of a sunny new day

The man they called El Lute

He had only seen the dark side of life

The man they called El Lute

And he wanted a home just like you and like me

In a country where all would be free

And then freedom really came to his land

And also to El Lute

Now he walks in the light of a sunny new day

The man they called El Lute

He had only seen the dark side of life

The man they called El Lute

And he wanted a home just like you and like me

In a country where all would be free
