To Here Knows When
la ciudad donde vivo es el mapa de la soledad
al que llega le dan caramelos,
con el veneno de la ansiedad
la ciudad donde vivo es mi cárcel y mi libertad
La ciudad donde vivo es un ogro con dientes de oro,
un amante de lujo que siempre quise seducir
la ciudad junta a dios y el diablo,
al funcionario y al travesti,
la ciudad donde vivo es un niño deseando su fin
Corazón, corazón, corazón, corazón de cemento
corazón, corazón, corazón, coraz
Good Ole Boys Like Me
When I was a kid Uncle Remus he put me to bed
With a picture of Stonewall Jackson above my head
Then daddy came in to kiss his little man
With gin on his breath and a Bible in his hand
He talked about honor and things I should know
Then he'd stagger a little as he went out the door
CHORUS:
I can still hear the soft Southern winds in the live oak trees
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me
Hank and Tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me
Nothing makes a sound in the night like the wind does
But you ain't afraid if you're washed in the blood like I was
The smell of cape jasmine thru the window screen
John R. and the Wolfman kept me company
By the light of the radio by my bed
With Thomas Wolfe whispering in my head
When I was in school I ran with kid down the street
But I watched him burn himself up on bourbon and speed
But I was smarter than most and I could choose
Learned to talk like the man on the six o'clock news
When I was eighteen, Lord, I hit the road
But it really doesn't matter how far I go
