Mar de Rum

White Rabbits

Sea of Rum

Saint Michael, the archangel
Came down and he ran out the devil
The devil went and hid in a fishing town
Now he lives off the beach off Long Island Sound

And he plays his drums by the sea of rum
Sit in the sun all day, watching ships sail away
Then Michael would put him back in the ground
But he won't find the devil in Stanford town

When I was younger I got in trouble
I was a sailor, I fell for the bottle
Of all the places I was ever sent
I met the devil off the coast of Connecticut

And he played his drums by the sea of rum
Stayed up all night and drank until I woke in the tank
and Michael would put him back in the ground
But he won't find the devil in Stanford town

And he played his drums by the sea of rum
Cards up his sleeves they fall like leafs
Save money, when the day is done
Cause I'll be back at your door when my money's gone

Mar de Rum

São Miguel, o arcanjo
Desceu e expulsou o diabo
O diabo foi se esconder numa cidade pesqueira
Agora ele vive na praia do Long Island Sound

E ele toca seus tambores à beira do mar de rum
Fica de boa ao sol o dia todo, vendo os barcos zarpar
Então Miguel o colocaria de volta no chão
Mas ele não vai encontrar o diabo na cidade de Stanford

Quando eu era mais jovem, me meti em encrenca
Eu era marinheiro, me deixei levar pela bebida
De todos os lugares que já fui
Encontrei o diabo na costa de Connecticut

E ele tocava seus tambores à beira do mar de rum
Fiquei acordado a noite toda e bebi até acordar na cela
E Miguel o colocaria de volta no chão
Mas ele não vai encontrar o diabo na cidade de Stanford

E ele tocava seus tambores à beira do mar de rum
Cartas nas mangas, caem como folhas
Guarde grana, quando o dia acabar
Porque eu vou voltar na sua porta quando meu dinheiro acabar
