Death to my Hometown

Interprete: Bruce Springsteen
Disco: Wrecking ball

Letra de la canción:

Well, no cannon ball did fly, no rifles cut us down

No bombs fell from the sky, no blood soaked the ground

No powder flash blinded the eye

No deathly thunder sounded

But just as sure as the hand of God

They brought death to my hometown

They brought death to my hometown

Now, no shells ripped the evening sky

No cities burning down

No army stormed the shores for which we’d die

No dictators were crowned

I awoke on a quiet night, I never heard a sound

The marauders raided in the dark

And brought death to my hometown

They brought death to my hometown

They destroyed our families, factories

And they took our homes

They left our bodies on the plains

The vultures picked our bones

So, listen up my sonny boy, be ready when they come

For they’ll be returning sure as the rising sun

Now get yourself a song to sing

And sing it ’til you’re done

Sing it hard and sing it well

Send the robber barons straight to hell

The greedy thieves who came around

And ate the flesh of everything they found

Whose crimes have gone unpunished now

Who walk the streets as free men now

They brought death to our hometown, boys

Death to our hometown

Death to our hometown, boys

Death to our hometown

Wrecking ball
