Family Man
(original)
Back in 1934
He came bangin' on the backstage door
Askin' for my hard earned pay
Then he drank it all away you know
That’s the way it goes
It was come what may
Off we all went to the war
They stole five years, and so much more you know
I was a stranger to my wife
This is the story of my life you know
Slow slow quick quick slow
Then we were on our way
I looked through my window and the slate was grey
Over the rooftops and far away
I had a secret, I had a plan
One day I’ll be a family man
And on that Butlins holiday
I heard a calling, seems like yesterday
We sailed off to that distant shore
40 years and maybe more you know
On and on we go
Then it all fades away
And Out through my window and into the gray
Over the rooftops and far away
This was my secret, this was my plan
Now I’m remembered as a family man
Out through my window and into the grey
Over the rooftops and far away
I had a secret, I had a plan
One day I’d be a family man
(Whistling tune)
(traducción)
En 1934
Él vino golpeando la puerta del backstage
Preguntando por mi pago duramente ganado
Luego se lo bebió todo, ¿sabes?
Así es como funciona
Pase lo que pase
Todos fuimos a la guerra
Se robaron cinco años, y tanto más ya sabes
yo era un extraño para mi esposa
Esta es la historia de mi vida sabes
lento lento rápido rápido lento
Entonces estábamos en nuestro camino
Miré a través de mi ventana y la pizarra era gris.
