Born in Puerto Rico (Demo with Jose Feliciano) (Bonus Track) - Paul Simon (保罗·西蒙)[00:00:00]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:00:15]
We came here when I was a child[00:00:20]
Before I reached the age of sixteen[00:00:25]
I was running with the gang and we were wild[00:00:29]
He keeps looking but he don't recognize me[00:00:37]
Some guy from Lexington or Park[00:00:42]
Red beans and rice from kitchen windows[00:00:46]
Supper-time and the barrio is dark[00:00:51]
No one knows you like I do[00:00:56]
Nobody can know your heart the way I do[00:01:01]
No one can testify to all that you've been through[00:01:05]
But I will[00:01:09]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:01:14]
And my blood is Taino[00:01:17]
Spanish Caribbean my soul[00:01:19]
We came here wearing summer clothes in winter[00:01:25]
Hearts of sunshine in the cold[00:01:28]
Your family rented this apartment[00:01:45]
You'd watch the street lamps from your perch[00:01:50]
In the sacramental hour your stepfather in black[00:01:55]
Preached the fire of the Pentecostal Church[00:01:59]
No one knows you like I do[00:02:05]
Nobody can know your heart the way I do[00:02:09]
No one can testify to all that you've been through[00:02:14]
But this will[00:02:18]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:02:23]
Came here when I was a child[00:02:28]
Small change and sunlight [00:02:32]
Then I left these streets for good[00:02:34]
My days as short as they were wild[00:02:36]
I'm Carlos Apache[00:02:43]
Angel Soto[00:02:45]
Frenchy Cordero[00:02:46]
Babu Charlie Cruz[00:02:49]
Your features blurred in every grainy photo[00:02:51]
And fading headline of the Daily News[00:02:55]
Wiltwyck School for Criminal Children[00:03:03]
Auburn Brooklyn House of D[00:03:08]
Dannemora Sing-Sing Attica[00:03:13]
Greenhaven[00:03:16]
Twenty years inside today you're free[00:03:17]
You cannot even read your story[00:03:22]
The pages piling up in shame[00:03:27]
Before the words released you [00:03:32]
The guard would kill the light[00:03:34]
The night you took The Capeman for your name[00:03:36]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:03:42]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:03:46]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:03:51]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:03:55]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:04:00]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:04:05]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:04:09]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:04:14]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:04:19]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:04:23]
I was born in Puerto Rico[00:04:32]
