She Only Meant To Use Him

Ela Só Queria Usá-lo

She Only Meant To Use Him

Ela era jovem e bonitaShe was young and she was pretty
E o conheceu na cidadeAnd she met him in the city
E de alguma forma ele se encaixou no seu planoAnd somehow he fit right into her plan
Ela sabia que teve sorteShe knew she hit it lucky
Ele possuía metade de Kentucky e o melhor de tudo,He owned half of Kentucky and best of all,
Ele era um homem de sessenta anos.He was a sixty year old man.

Ela deixou ele pensar que a pegouShe let him think he'd caught her
Ela o levou até o altarShe led him to the alter
Com sete quilates na mãoTotin' seven carats on her hand
Toda vestida de cetimAll dressed up in satin
Ah, o bom Senhor desperdiçou essaAw' the good Lord wasted that one
Mas ela sabia que seria a vencedora no final.But she knew she'd be the winner in the end.

Porque ela só queria usá-lo'Cause she only meant to use him
Ela só queria usá-loShe only meant to use him
E não se importava se o que fazia era erradoAnd she didn't care if what she did was wrong
Ela só queria usá-loShe only meant to use him
E sabia o que estava fazendoAnd she knew what she was doing
Em alguns anos ela seria rica e ele estaria fora.In a few years she'd be rich and he'd be gone.

No palácio de um milhão de dólaresIn their million dollar palace
O homem envelheceu e ficou ciumentoThe man grew old and jealous
E nunca a deixou sair de casa sozinhaAnd he never let her leave the house alone
Ela estava no auge e segurandoShe was in her prime and holding
Mas sabia que ele era velhoBut she knew that he was old
E as chances eram de que ele não ficaria por muito tempo.And chances were he wouldn't be around that long.

À medida que os dias e noites se alongavamAs the days and nights grew longer
A ganância dentro dela cresciaThe greed in her grewstronger
E até passou pela cabeça dela tirar a vida deleAnd it even crossed her mind to take his life
Mas ele descobriu que tinha sido enganadoBut he found out he'd been taken
E seu orgulho foi muito abaladoAnd his pride was badly shakened
E ele sabia que ela nunca quis ser uma esposa.And he knew she never meant to be a wife.

Ela só queria usá-loShe only meant to use him
Ela só queria usá-loShe only meant to use him
Mas sabia o que queria no finalBut she knew what she wanted in the end
Ela só queria usá-lo.She only meant to use him.
Mas ele sabia o que ela estava fazendoBut he knew what she was doing
E jurou que ela nunca teria um centavo para gastar.And he swore she'd never have a dime to spend.

Torturada pela frustraçãoTormented by frustration
Ela viu sua beleza se esvaindoShe watched her beauty wasting
Enquanto as linhas em seu rosto começavam a aparecerAs the lines upon her face began to show
Ela se entregou à bebida pesadaShe turned to heavy drinkin'
Porque seu barco estava afundando lentamente'Cause her ship was slowly sinking
E a garrafa era o único lugar para ir.And the bottle was the only place to go.

Agora, 20 anos depoisNow 20 odd years later
As manchetes no jornalThe headlines in the paper
Diziam que ela descansou sua alma aos 53Said they laid her soul to rest at 53
E quando o levaram até seu caixãoAnd when they wheeled him to her coffin
Ele tirou o diamante delaHe took her diamond off
E apenas sorriu e finalmente morreu aos 93.And he just smiled and finally died at 93.

Ela só queria usá-loShe only meant to use him
Deus sabe que ela queria usá-loLord knows she meant to use him
Mas ela morreu com sete quilates na mãoBut she died with seven carats on her hand
Toda vestida de cetimAll dressed in satin
Ah, o bom Senhor desperdiçou essaAw' the good Lord wasted that one
Mas seu marido morreu um velho satisfeito.But her husband died a satisfied old man.

Ela era jovem e bonitaShe was young and she was pretty
E o conheceu na cidadeAnd she met him in the city
E de alguma forma ele se encaixou no seu planoAnd somehow he fit right into her plan
Ela sabia que teve sorteShe knew she hit it lucky
Ele possuía metade de Kentucky e o melhor de tudo,He owned half of Kentucky and best of all,
Ele era um homem de sessenta anos...He was a sixty year old man...
