Shook some hands then adios Brooklyn amigos Maybe some of them had hopes of seeing me again Some even said that my judge-Judge Gerald Culkin- Wouldn't play it by the book Maybe let us off the hook But, WOH-OO-WOH, I knew better. SAL & SALVADOR Afraid to leave the projects To cross into another neighborhood SAL The blancos and the nigger gangs Well, they'd kill you if they could. AUREA & WOMEN Angel of Mercy, people are suffering All over the world Spanish children are taught on their knees to believe Angel of Mercy, people are suffering All over the island tonight, Mothers weep SAL & AUREA Sisters grieve. SAL Well, I entered the courtroom, state of New York County of New York, just some spic They scrubbed off the sidewalk Guilty by my dress Guilty in the press Let The Capeman burn for the murder Well the "Spanish boys" had their day in court And now it was time for some fuckin' law and order The electric chair For the greasy pair Said the judge to the court reporter SAL & SALVADOR Afraid to leave the projects To cross into another neighborhood SALVADOR The newspapers and the T.V. crews Well, they'd kill you if they could AUREA & WOMEN Angel of Mercy, people are suffering All over the world A Spanish boy could be killed every night of the week SAL But just let some white boy die And the world goes crazy for blood-Latin blood. I don't lie when I speak. SAL & SALVADOR Well they shackled my hands SAL A heavy belt around my waist to restrain me SAL & SALVADOR And they shackled my legs SAL Hernandez, the "Umbrella Man," chained beside me Then we rode that Black Maria Through the streets of Spanish Harlem Calling old friends on the corners SAL & AUREA Just to lay our prayers upon them SAL Crying Adios Hermanos, Adios SAL & SALVADOR Adios Hermanos, Adios Lead Vocal-Paul Simon Background Vocal-Briz Background Vocal-Myrna Gomila Background Vocal-Karen Bernod Background Vocal-Renee Connell-Adams Background Vocal-DeWayne Snype Background Vocal-Kia Jeffries Background Vocal-Ed Vasquez Background Vocal-Derrick James Organ-Oriente Lopez Background Vocals Recorded by Roy Halee Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Bernadette (3:28), Blues Run the Game, Bodyguard, Born at the Right Time, Born In Puerto Rico, Born In Puerto Rico (454), Born In Puerto Rico (4:54), Bridge over Troubled Water, Bridge Over Troubled Waters, Can I Forgive Him, Can I Forgive Him (602), Can I Forgive Him (6:02), Cant Run But, Cars Are Cars, Ccilia, Cecilia, Cloudy, Concert in the Park, Congratulations, Crazy Love, Vol. II, Crazy Love Volume 2, Darling Lorraine, Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes, Duncan, El Condor Pasa, El Condor Pasa (If I Could), Everything Put Together Falls Apart, Father and Daughter, Flowers Never Bend With The Rainfall, Further to Fly, God Bless The Absentee, Gone at Last, Graceland, Gumboots, Have A Good Time, He Was My Brother, Hearts And Bones, Hearts Bones, Homeless, Homeward Bound, How The Heart Approaches What It Yearns, Hurricane Eye, I Am A Rock, I Do It For Your Love, I Know What I Know, Jonah, Kathys Song, Killer Wants To Go To College, Killer Wants To Go To College (151), Killer Wants To Go To College (1:51), Other Paul Simon song Lyrics 10 Years (Oprah Winfrey show 10 year anniversary theme) Lyrics 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover Lyrics A Most Peculiar Man Lyrics A Poem On The Underground Wall Lyrics A Simple Desultory Philipic Lyrics Ace In The Hole Lyrics Adios Hermanos Lyrics Adios Hermanos (442) Lyrics All Around The World Or The Myth Of Fingerprints Lyrics Allergies Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel Lyrics Paul Simon amp Art Garfunkel Lyrics Paul Simon Art Garfunkel Lyrics Paul Stanley Lyrics Paul Stookey Lyrics Dyk Paul Van Lyrics Paul Van Dyk Lyrics Paul Wall Lyrics Paul Wall Chamillionaire Lyrics Paul Wall Chamillionaire (Da Swishahouse) Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
