Tonyo Bicicleta |
|
| Everybody saying that he died in the swell And everybody's saying that he is burning in hell When all these stories are told I still believe he's alive and well And then some time on a hot summer night Tonyo Bicicleta riding away in the moonlight Born back in the hills of Mayaguez He's a motherless child with no where to stay Broken promises and shattered dreams Is all the man ever really ever did see Then some time on a hot summer night Tonyo Bicicleta riding away in the moonlight And everybody there still remembers that night That is anybody there brave enough to stay Over in the corner where the stakes ran high You could feel the tension nobody blinked an eye I can still hear when that shot rang out And blood spilled to the floor like a whiskey spout Tonyo grabbed the money and he made for the door That's when a woman drew her pistol just to even the score Only, Tonyo stopped to take him one last look At the woman lay there bleeding on the killing floor And I can still remember on that hot summer night Tonyo Bicicleta riding away in the moonlight See him in the mountains See him on the coast Look him through your window Read him in them books Watch him on the tv when you understood See him in the movies see him bad and good He has always been so misunderstood Read him in the papers Wish that you could(repeat and fade) |
