Drank Like A River

Bebeu Como um Rio

Drank Like A River

Bem, ele estava com os olhos marejadosWell, he was kneely-eyed
Quando voltou para a cidade de onde veioWhen he returned to the town he'd come from
Ele tá com uma garrafa escondida hoje à noite atrás de um barHe's brown bagging it tonight behind some tavern
Alguém destruiu a vida dele, e aposto que foi a amadaSomebody wrecked his life, and I'll bet you it was his darling
Alguém destruiu a vida dele, e aposto que foi a amadaSomebody wrecked his life, and I'll bet you it was his darling

Então ele bebeu como um rio quando os sinos do casamento tocaramSo he drank like a river when their wedding bells rang
Assistiu do campanário enquanto as meninas do coral cantavamWatched from the steeple as the choir girls sang
Morreu em uma sarjeta de pé e com as mãosDied in a gutter on his feet and his hands
As mesmas mãos que um dia tocaram o rosto delaSame hands that had once touched her face

Bem, ele estava com os olhos marejadosWell, he was kneely-eyed
Quando voltou para a cidade de onde veioWhen he returned to the town he'd come from
Ele tá bebendo cerveja com o cunhadoHe's hanging out drinking beer with his brother-in-law
Ele era um bebedor à noite, e de manhã ele era inquietoHe was a drinker at night, and in the morning he was unnerving
Ele era um bebedor em tempo integral, no dia em que perdeu a amadaHe was a drinker full time, the day that he lost his darling

Então ele bebeu como um rio quando os sinos do casamento tocaramSo he drank like a river when their wedding bells rang
Assistiu do campanário enquanto as meninas do coral cantavamWatched from the steeple as the choir girls sang
Morreu em uma sarjeta de pé e com as mãosDied in a gutter on his feet and his hands
As mesmas mãos que um dia tocaram o rosto delaSame hands that had once touched her face
