| With a will of iron and a heart of gold and a life he did not choose
| Con voluntad de hierro y corazón de oro y una vida que no eligió
|
| He’d hold his head up high and proud beaten black and blue
| Mantendría la cabeza en alto y orgulloso golpeado negro y azul
|
| A shot of whiskey down his gullet and a bottle in his hand
| Un trago de whisky en la garganta y una botella en la mano
|
| Thrust into a world that would never understand
| Empujado a un mundo que nunca entendería
|
| Oh Johnny look at, look at what you’ve done
| Oh, Johnny mira, mira lo que has hecho
|
| Chose life with the bottle and threw away your love
| Elegiste la vida con la botella y tiró tu amor
|
| Hey Johnny did you, did you lose your way
| Oye, Johnny, ¿te perdiste?
|
| Never knew the price you’d pay
| Nunca supe el precio que pagarías
|
| Look away, look away, look away your irish flag
| Mira hacia otro lado, mira hacia otro lado, mira hacia otro lado tu bandera irlandesa
|
| There’s a war, there’s a war, there’s a war inside yourself
| Hay una guerra, hay una guerra, hay una guerra dentro de ti
|
| Look away, look away, look away while you still can
| Mira hacia otro lado, mira hacia otro lado, mira hacia otro lado mientras puedas
|
| At war with a world that would never understand
| En guerra con un mundo que nunca entendería
|
| Johnny had himself a love that he planned to make his wife
| Johnny tenía un amor que planeaba hacerle a su esposa
|
| Who through it all whether right or wrong was always by his side
| Quien a través de todo, ya sea bien o mal, siempre estuvo a su lado
|
| Then in a fit of rage, he raised his hand up to her face
| Luego, en un ataque de ira, levantó la mano hasta su rostro.
|
| She dried off her tears then she turned and walked away | Se secó las lágrimas, luego se dio la vuelta y se alejó. |
