I saw him pass by the corner of the old neighborhood
with the tumbao that the handsome look when walking;
hands always in the pockets of his coat
so that they do not know which of them the dagger carries.
Wear a wide-brimmed hat
and slippers in case there are problems leaving,
dark glasses so they do not know that
he is looking, and a gold tooth that when he laughs is seen shining.
About three blocks from that corner a woman
he's walking the entire sidewalk for the fifth time,
and in a saguan enters and takes a drink to forget
that the day is loose and there are no customers
pa 'work.
A car passes very slowly down the avenue
It does not have marks but to`os
They know what`s police.
Pedro Navaja the hands
always inside ?? the overcoat
look and smile and the gold tooth shines again.
As you walk past the view from corner to corner
you do not see a soul
this deserted toa 'the avenue;
when suddenly that woman leaves the hall
and Pedro Navaja squeezes a fist inside? the overcoat
Look PA 'one side, look at the other and do not see anyone
and the race but without noise crosses the street.
so much on the other sidewalk
that woman goes
grumbling
Well, he did not do pesos with what to eat.
While walking, the woman takes out a revolver from the old coat, and keeps it in her wallet so that it does not get in the way;
a 38 is my special tangueso
which he loads over to free it from all evil.
And Pedro Navaja dagger in hand went over him,
the golden tooth was lighting up the avenue
He made it easy,
while he laughed, the knife sank if compassion,
when suddenly a shot rang out
like a cannon.
And Pedro Navaja fell on the sidewalk while watching
to that woman
of stirring in hand and death wound
Oh, I said to him,
I thought today is not my day
I'm room '
but Pedro Navaja you are worse
you are not in na '.
And believe me people
that although there was noise
nobody came out,
there were no curious people,
there were no questions,
nobody cried.
Only one drunkard with the two dead people stumbled,
he picked up the revolver, the dagger, the weights
And he left.
And stumbling, he left singing 'desafinao'
the choir that I brought here
and give the message of my song:
Chorus
Life gives you surprises, surprises surprises gives you life
Oh God! (Bis)
Pedro Navaja corner bully
who has iron kills iron ends
(Repeats chorus)
Maleante fisherman
For the lure you threw,
instead of a sardine a shark
you hooked
the, the, the, the, the, the, the (Bis)
I like to live in America.
(Repeats chorus)
Eight million hectares has the city of New York
(Repeats chorus)
as my grandmother used to say
who laughs last, laughs best
I like to live in America
(Repeats chorus),
When destiny sends it,
it does not change even the bravest, if you were born to hammer
The nails fall from the sky.
(Repeats chorus)
the remote neighborhood cared for on the sidewalk
I care? He will not fly
(Repeats chorus)
as in a letter novel
the drunk I double
the alley
The life give you??
Only among all we can make this a better place :)
