Lyrics

Paul Simon - That Was Your Mother

A long time ago, yeah
Before you was born dude
When I was still single
And life was great
I held this job as a traveling salesman
That kept me moving from state to state
Well, I'm standing on the corner of lafayette
State of louisiana
Wondering where a city boy could go
To get a little conversation
Drink a little red wine
Catch a little bit of those cajun girls
Dancing to zydeco

Along come a young girl
She's pretty as a prayerbook
Sweet as an apple on christmas day
I said good gracious can this be my luck
If that's my prayerbook
Lord let us pray

Well, I'm standing on the corner of lafayettePaul Simon - That Was Your Mother - http://motolyrics.com/paul-simon/that-was-your-mother-lyrics-spanish-translation.html
State of louisiana
Wondering where a city boy could go
To get her in a conversation
Drink a little red wine
Dance to the music of clifton chenier
The king of the bayou

Well, that was your mother
And that was your father
Before you was born dude
When life was great
You are the burden of my generation
I sure do love you
But let's get that straight

Well, I'm standing on the corner of lafayette
Arcoss the street from the public
Heading down to the lone star cafe
Maybe get a little conversation
Drink a little red wine
Standing in the shadow of clifton chenier
Dancing the night away

Paul Simon - Ella fue tu madre (Spanish translation)

Hace mucho tiempo, si
Antes de que naciste, compa~nero
Cuando aun estaba solo
Y la vida era chora
Tenia este trabajo de comerciante viajero
Que me hizo moverme de un estado a otro

Pues, estuve parado en una esquina de Lafayette
En el estado de Louisiana
Imaginando adonde un chico de la ciudad podria ir
Para conversar un poco
Tomar algun vino tinto
Mirar un poco esas chicas Cajun
Que bailaban a musica Zydeco

Paso una chica joven
Tan guapa como un libro de oraciones
Tan dulce como una manzana el dia de Navidad
Dije, que gracia, podria ser mi suerte
Si esto es mi libro de oraciones
Se~nor, dejanos orar

Pues, estuve parado en una esquina de Lafayette
En el estado de LouisianaPaul Simon - That Was Your Mother - http://motolyrics.com/paul-simon/that-was-your-mother-lyrics-spanish-translation.html
Imaginando que un chico de la ciudad podria hacer
Para conversar un poco
Tomar algun vino tinto
Bailar a la musica de Clifton Chenier
El rey del Bayou

Pues, ella fue tu madre
Y el fue tu padre
Antes de que naciste, compa~nero
Cuando la vida era chora
Tu eres la carga de mi generacion
Si que te amo
Pero dejanos ponerlo claro

Pues, estuve parado en una esquina de Lafayette
Al otro lado del Public
Dirigiendome al cafe Lone Star
Para tal vez conversar un poco
Tomar algun vino tinto
Quedarme en la sombra de Clifton Chenier
Terminar la noche bailando
