Adios Hermanos - Paul Simon (保罗·西蒙)[00:00:00]
It was the morning of october 6th 1960[00:00:35]
I was wearing my brown suit[00:00:38]
Preparing to leave the house of d [00:00:40]
Shook some hands then adios brooklyn amigos[00:00:43]
Maybe some of them had hopes of seeing me again[00:00:51]
Some even said that my judge-judge gerald culkin-[00:00:53]
Wouldn't play it by the book[00:00:59]
Maybe let us off the hook[00:01:01]
But woh-oo-woh I knew better [00:01:03]
Afraid to leave the projects[00:01:09]
To cross into another neighborhood[00:01:12]
The blancos and the nigger gangs[00:01:16]
Well they'd kill you if they could [00:01:20]
Angel of mercy people are suffering[00:01:25]
All over the world[00:01:29]
Spanish children are taught on their knees to believe[00:01:35]
Angel of mercy people are suffering[00:01:43]
All over the island tonight [00:01:47]
Mothers weep[00:01:54]
Sisters grieve [00:01:58]
Well I entered the courtroom state of new york[00:02:02]
County of new york just some spic[00:02:05]
They scrubbed off the sidewalk[00:02:08]
Guilty by my dress[00:02:11]
Guilty in the press[00:02:13]
Let the capeman burn for the murder[00:02:15]
Well the spanish boys had their day in court[00:02:20]
And now it was time for some f**kin law and order[00:02:22]
The electric chair[00:02:28]
For the greasy pair[00:02:30]
Said the judge to the court reporter[00:02:32]
Afraid to leave the projects[00:02:37]
To cross into another neighborhood[00:02:42]
The newspapers and the t v crews[00:02:46]
Well they'd kill you if they could[00:02:48]
Angel of mercy people are suffering[00:02:54]
All over the world[00:02:58]
A spanish boy could be killed every night of the week[00:03:04]
But just let some white boy die[00:03:13]
And the world goes crazy for blood-latin blood [00:03:15]
I don't lie when I speak [00:03:23]
Well they shackled my hands[00:03:32]
A heavy belt around my waist to restrain me[00:03:41]
And they shackled my legs[00:03:50]
Hernandez the umbrella man chained beside me[00:03:58]
Then we rode that black maria[00:04:07]
Through the streets of spanish harlem[00:04:11]
Calling old friends on the corners[00:04:15]
Just to lay our prayers upon them[00:04:19]
Crying[00:04:23]
Adios hermanos adios[00:04:24]
Adios hermanos adios[00:04:33]
