Muitos anos atrás, na fronteira entre Illinois e WisconsinMany years ago along the Illinois-Wisconsin Border
Havia essa tribo indígenaThere was this Indian tribe
Eles encontraram dois bebês na florestaThey found two babies in the woods
Bebês brancosWhite babies
Um deles se chamava ElizabethOne of them was named Elizabeth
Ela era a mais bonita das duasShe was the fairer of the two
Enquanto a menor e mais frágil se chamava MarieWhile the smaller and more fragile one was named Marie
Nunca tinham visto meninas brancas antesHaving never seen white girls before
E vivendo nos dois lagos conhecidos como os Lagos GêmeosAnd living on the two lakes known as the Twin Lakes
Eles nomearam o lago maior e mais bonito de Lago ElizabethThey named the larger and more beautiful Lake, Lake Elizabeth
E assim, o lago menor, escondido da estradaAnd thus the smaller lake that was hidden from the highway
Ficou conhecido para sempre como Lago MarieBecame known forever as Lake Marie

Repete o Refrão:Repeat Chorus:

Muitos anos depois, me vi conversando com uma garotaMany years later I found myself talking to this girl
Que estava de costas para o Lago MarieWho was standing there with her back turned to Lake Marie
O vento soprava especialmente em seu cabeloThe wind was blowing especially through her hair
Havia quatro linguiças italianas grelhando na churrasqueiraThere was four italian sausages cooking on the outdoor grill
E cara, elas estavam ssssssssizzling'And Man, they was ssssssssizzlin'
Muitos anos depois, nos encontramos no CanadáMany years later we found ourselves in Canada
Tentando salvar nosso casamento e talvez pescar alguns peixesTrying to save our marriage and perhaps catch a few fish
O que parecesse mais fácilWhatever seemed easier
Naquela noite, ela adormeceu em meus braçosThat night she fell asleep in my arms
Cantando a melodia de "Louie Louie"Humming the tune to "Louie Louie'
Aah, amor, temos que ir agora.Aah baby, We gotta go now.

Repete o Refrão:Repeat Chorus:

Os cachorros estavam latindo enquanto os carros estacionavamThe dogs were barking as the cars were parking
Os agiotas estavam em cima, os narcs estavam na colaThe loan sharks were sharking the narcs were narcing
Praticamente todo mundo estava láPractically everyone was there
No estacionamento perto da reserva florestalIn the parking lot by the forest preserve
A polícia encontrou dois corposThe police had found two bodies
Não, corpos nusNay, naked bodies
Seus rostos estavam horrivelmente desfigurados por algum objeto afiadoTheir faces had been horribly disfigured by some sharp object
Vi isso no noticiário, na TV, em um vídeo preto e brancoSaw it on the news On the TV news in a black and white video
Sabe como é o sangue em um vídeo preto e branco?You know what blood looks like in a black and white video?
Sombras, Sombras, é exatamente assim que pareceShadows, Shadows that's exactly what it looks like
Todo o amor que compartilhamos entre ela e eu foi esmagadoAll the love we shared between her and me was slammed
Esmagado contra as margens do Velho Lago Marie, MarieSlammed up against the banks of Old Lake Marie, Marie

Estávamos paradosWe were standing
Parados à beira de águas tranquilasStanding by peaceful waters
Parados à beira de águas tranquilasStanding by peaceful waters
Whoa Wah Oh Wha OhWhoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha OhWhoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha OhWhoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha OhWhoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Parados à beira de águas tranquilasStanding by peaceful waters
Águas tranquilasPeaceful waters
Parados à beira de águas tranquilasStanding by peaceful waters
Águas tranquilasPeaceful waters
Parados à beira de águas tranquilasStanding by peaceful waters
Águas tranquilasPeaceful waters
Parados à beira de águas tranquilasStanding by peaceful waters
Águas tranquilasPeaceful waters
Aah, amor, temos que ir agora.Aah baby, we gotta go now
