Across The Line(original) |
There’s so many reasons |
A man will commit a crime |
Frustration’s gnawin' at him |
Twisting up his mind |
He’s tickin' like a bomb |
That may go off at any time |
I’m not here to make excuses |
I didn’t walk into it blind |
It was plain old greed |
Took something that wasn’t mine |
It was the weakness for a woman |
That made me step across the line |
What made it so bad |
Was that I had a woman of my own |
And she never did wrong to me |
Almost did her best to make our home |
From these cheatin' seeds I planted |
Some big-time grief has grown |
There’s never been a man who’s lived a perfect life |
I cut three hearts to pieces |
Didn’t even use a knife |
I didn’t have the common decency |
To lay off my brother’s wife |
(Saxophone solo) |
(Guitar solo) |
No they won’t put me in prison |
I’ll be doing some hard time |
Child supporting alimony |
Taking my very last dime |
I didn’t think about the damage |
When I stepped across the line |
(Cool guitar outro with screaming at the end!) |
(traducción) |
Hay tantas razones |
Un hombre cometerá un crimen |
La frustración lo está carcomiendo |
Torciendo su mente |
Está haciendo tictac como una bomba |
Eso puede sonar en cualquier momento |
No estoy aquí para poner excusas |
No entré a ciegas |
Era simple y vieja codicia |
Tomé algo que no era mío |
Era la debilidad por una mujer |
Eso me hizo cruzar la línea |
¿Qué lo hizo tan malo? |
era que yo tenia una mujer propia |
Y nunca me hizo mal |
Casi hizo todo lo posible para hacer de nuestro hogar |
De estas semillas engañosas que planté |
Un gran dolor ha crecido |
Nunca ha habido un hombre que haya vivido una vida perfecta |
Corté tres corazones en pedazos |
Ni siquiera usó un cuchillo |
No tuve la decencia común |
Para despedir a la esposa de mi hermano |
(Solo de saxofón) |
(Solo de guitarra) |
No, no me meterán en la cárcel. |
estaré pasando un mal rato |
Pensión alimenticia para niños |
Tomando mi último centavo |
No pensé en el daño |
Cuando crucé la línea |
(¡Excelente salida de guitarra con gritos al final!) |
