SAM MEU HERÓI

É só falar de música um pouco que eu me emociono...

As duas músicas que Kris Kristofferson compôs para Sam Peckinpah...




ONE FOR THE MONEY

I've seen you standing there stunned in the spotlight
I've seen the sweat streak the pain on your face
Cause you're caught like a clown in a circle of strangers
Who do you screw to get out of this place

It's one for the money
And too far to go
Three fingers of whiskey
Just for the soul

That lady you're pleasin'
Is hungry and cold
Don't look in her eyes
You'll see what you sold

Too many bodies in too many bars
Too many feelings are fallin' behind
Cause you're easy to fool when you're lost in the stars
Shoot out that spotlight before you go blind

It's one for the money
And too far to go
Three fingers of whiskey
Just for the soul

That lady you're pleasin'
Is hungry and cold
Don't look in her eyes
You'll see what you sold


SAM'S SONG


I have been with the best that the bastards could muster
From Danny the Dildo to Sidney the Snake
And I feel like a working girl pausing to wonder
Just how much screwin' the spirit can take

I said, ";Willie old buddy, please tell me again
The reason to keep goin' on.";
He said, ";There's no harder words to say over a friend
Than they done you so righteously wrong
They stopped you from singing your song";

He was our hero, boys, he took the bullet
But he went down swingin' his fist from the floor
You can ask any working girl south of the border
Sam Peckinpah era un hombre for sure

Willie old buddy please tell me again
The reason to keep goin' on He said,
";There's no harder words to say over a friend
Than they done you so righteously wrong
They stopped you from singin' your song.";
But not me.

Agora só falta achar as duas em mp3...
