[00:02.81] |
This is the story of El Lute |
[00:08.79] |
A man who was born to be hunted like a wild animal |
[00:12.37] |
Because he was poor |
[00:15.08] |
But he refused to accept his fate |
[00:18.05] |
And today his honor has been restored |
[00:36.71] |
|
[00:50.82] |
He was only nineteen |
[00:54.26] |
And he was sentenced to die |
[00:56.69] |
For something that somebody else did |
[01:00.97] |
And blamed on El Lute |
[01:06.99] |
Then they changed it to life |
[01:09.39] |
And so he could escape |
[01:11.66] |
From then on they chased him |
[01:15.08] |
And searched for him day and night |
[01:15.62] |
all over Spain |
[01:21.33] |
But the search was in vain for El Lute |
[01:29.50] |
He had only seen the dark side of life |
[01:33.60] |
The man they called El Lute |
[01:38.18] |
And he wanted a home just like you and like me |
[01:43.01] |
In a country where all would be free |
[01:47.61] |
So he taught himself to read and to write |
[01:52.05] |
It didn't help El Lute |
[01:56.45] |
He was one who had dared to escape overnight |
[02:00.20] |
They had to find El Lute |
[02:24.17] |
|
[02:41.81] |
Soon the fame of his name |
[02:45.11] |
Spread like wild fire all over the land |
[02:51.69] |
With a price on his head |
[02:54.71] |
People still gave him bread |
[02:57.13] |
And they gave him a hand |
[03:03.68] |
For they knew he was right |
[03:10.78] |
And his fight was their fight |
[03:15.31] |
No one gave you a chance |
[03:17.25] |
In the Spain of those days |
[03:19.93] |
On the walls every place they had put up |
[03:23.30] |
The face of El Lute |
[03:29.67] |
And he robbed where he could just like once Robin Hood |
[03:38.12] |
They finally caught him and |
[03:39.10] |
That seemed the end |
[03:40.95] |
But they caught him in vain |
[03:45.08] |
Cause a change came for Spain |
[03:49.11] |
And El Lute |
[03:53.69] |
He had only seen the dark side of life |
[03:57.46] |
The man they called El Lute |
[04:01.53] |
And he wanted a home just like you and like me |
[04:07.43] |
In a country where all would be free |
[04:11.14] |
And then freedom really came to his land |
[04:15.53] |
And also to El Lute |
[04:20.04] |
Now he walks in the light of a sunny new day |
[04:23.57] |
The man they called El Lute |
