Boney M - El Lute

NC

This is the story of El Lute,

a man who was born to be hunted,

like a wild animal. Because he was poor.

But he refused to accept his fate

and today his honor has been restored.

A

He was only nineteen

And was sentenced to die

For something, that somebody else did

                 D    Hm

And blamed on El Lute.

Then they changed it to life

And so he could escape

                 E

From there they chased him

And searched for him

             A

Day and night all over Spain.

         E

But the search was in vane

       A

For El Lute.

Refrain:

A                    D

He had only seen the dark side of life

                       A

The man they called El Lute.

                E

And he wanted a home just like you and like me

                    A

In the country where all would be free

                            D

Though he taught himself to read and to write

                  A

He didn't have El Lute.

                     E

He was one, who have dared to escape over night

            D       A

They had to find El Lute.

         Am

Soon the fame of his name

                         E              Dm

Spread like wild fire all over the land

With a price on his head

People still gave him bread

         Am

And they gave him a hand

          E

For they knew he was right

        Am

And his fight was their fight.

No one gave him a chance

In the stain of those days

On boards every place

They have glued up the face

Of El Lute.

And he robbed where he could

Just like once Robin Hood

They finally caught him

And that seems the end

But they caught him in vane

Cause the change came for Spain

And El Lute.

Refrain:

He had only seen the dark side of life

The man they called El Lute.

And he wanted a home just like you and like me

In the country where all would be free

When the freedom really came to his land

And also to El Lute.

Now he walks in the light of a sunny new day

The man they called El Lute.
