American Skin (41 Shots)

Interprete: Bruce Springsteen
Disco: High hopes

Letra de la canción:

41 shots, and we'll take that ride

'Cross this bloody river to the other side

41 shots, cut through the night

You're kneeling over his body in the vestibule

Praying for his life

Well, is it a gun, is it a knife

Is it a wallet, this is your life

It ain't no secret (it ain't no secret)

No secret my friend

You can get killed just for living in your American skin

(41 shots)

(41 shots)

(41 shots)

(41 shots)

41 shots, Lena gets her son ready for school

She says, "On these streets, Charles

You've got to understand the rules

If an officer stops you, promise me you'll always be polite

And that you'll never ever run away

Promise Mama you'll keep your hands in sight"

Well, is it a gun, is it a knife

Is it a wallet, this is your life

It ain't no secret (it ain't no secret)

No secret my friend

You can get killed just for living in your American skin

(41 shots)

(41 shots)

(41 shots)

(41 shots)

Is it a gun, is it a knife

Is it in your heart, is it in your eyes

It ain't no secret (it ain't no secret)

It ain't no secret (it ain't no secret)

41 shots, and we'll take that ride

'Cross this bloody river to the other side

41 shots, I got my boots caked in this mud

Baptized in these waters (we're baptized in these waters)

And in each other's blood (and in each other's blood)

Well, is it a gun, is it a knife

Is it a wallet, this is your life

It ain't no secret (it ain't no secret)

It ain't no secret (it ain't no secret)

No secret my friend

You can get killed just for living in

You can get killed just for living in your American skin
