专辑 | Before This World |
[Verse 1] | |
Oleana, via Del Norte, O Canada | |
It was snowtime, it was showtime, it was no time | |
To be lost in downtown Toronto | |
It was wintertime, ‘round dinnertime | |
I’m beginning to see that the sunshine just doesn’t want to | |
From a side street come a backbeat | |
Pulling on me like the moon pullin’ on the tide | |
Ay caramba, one-note samba, la la la la bamba | |
Lighting me up inside | |
[Chorus] | |
They had the heat of the sun in the beat of the talking drum | |
The light of a tropical moon on a night to remember | |
Someone summoned up summer just strumming on an old guitar | |
And every note was the antidote to December | |
[Verse 2] | |
My first impression, some kind of procession | |
Pulling on a long line of fancy dancers | |
A band stuck up on a flatbed truck | |
They were raising a ruckus swinging for the fences | |
Exiled Mexican textile working | |
Punching two clocks, sending two paychecks home boys | |
Hard working law ‘biding bus riding people | |
Celebration on wheels destination unknown | |
[Chorus] | |
They had the heat of the sun in the beat of the talking drum | |
The light of a tropical moon on a night to remember | |
Someone summoned up summer just strumming on an old guitar | |
And every note was the antidote to December | |
[Verse 3] | |
Rio Grande | |
Oleana | |
Via Del Norte | |
Oh Canada | |
There was a lifeline south in the song coming from her mouth | |
It swallowed me up and I followed it on downtown | |
In the light of dawn the message that life goes on | |
For the frozen man an invitation to live again | |
[Chorus] | |
They had the heat of the sun in the beat of the talking drum | |
The light of a tropical moon on a night to remember | |
Someone summoned up summer just strumming on an old guitar | |
And every note was the antidote to December | |
[Verse 4] | |
They were shakin’ it loose with the juice from the mambo man | |
Long lanky Yankee boy, Buckwheat and Spanky my my | |
Santiago de Cuba | |
Belo Horizonte | |
Cartagena | |
Guaguancó Canada | |

Oleana, via Del Norte, O Canada | |
It was snowtime, it was showtime, it was no time | |
To be lost in downtown Toronto | |
It was wintertime, ' round dinnertime | |
I' m beginning to see that the sunshine just doesn' t want to | |
From a side street come a backbeat | |
Pulling on me like the moon pullin' on the tide | |
Ay caramba, onenote samba, la la la la bamba | |
Lighting me up inside | |
