El Lute - Boney M [00:00:00]
This is the story of El Lute[00:00:03]
A man who was born[00:00:06]
To be hunted like a wild animal[00:00:09]
Because he was poor[00:00:12]
But he refused to accept his fate[00:00:14]
And today his honor has been restored[00:00:18]
He was only nineteen[00:00:52]
And he was sentenced to die[00:00:54]
For something that somebody else did[00:00:57]
And blamed on El Lute[00:01:00]
Then they changed it to life[00:01:06]
And so he could escape[00:01:09]
From then on they chased him[00:01:12]
And searched for him day and night[00:01:14]
All over Spain[00:01:17]
But the search was in vain for El Lute[00:01:21]
He had only seen the dark side of life[00:01:29]
The man they called El Lute[00:01:33]
And he wanted a home just like you and like me[00:01:38]
In a country where all would be free[00:01:43]
So he taught himself to read and to write[00:01:47]
It didn't help El Lute[00:01:52]
He was one who had dared to escape overnight[00:01:56]
They had to find El Lute[00:02:01]
Soon the fame of his name[00:02:13]
Spread like wild fire all over the land[00:02:15]
With a price on his head[00:02:23]
People still gave him bread[00:02:25]
And they gave him a hand[00:02:29]
For they knew he was right[00:02:37]
And his fight was their fight[00:02:42]
No one gave him a chance[00:02:46]
In the Spain of those days[00:02:48]
On the walls every place they had put up[00:02:51]
The face of El Lute[00:02:54]
And he robbed where[00:03:01]
He could just like once Robin Hood[00:03:02]
They finally caught him and[00:03:06]
That seemed the end[00:03:08]
But they caught him in vain[00:03:10]
Cause a change came for Spain[00:03:14]
And El Lute[00:03:19]
He had only seen the dark side of life[00:03:23]
The man they called El Lute[00:03:27]
And he wanted a home just like you and like me[00:03:31]
In a country where all would be free[00:03:36]
And then freedom really came to his land[00:03:41]
And also to El Lute[00:03:45]
Now he walks in the light of a sunny new day[00:03:50]
The man they called El Lute[00:03:54]
