Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out, by Derek and The Dominos

Layla

Feliz fin de semana!
(download)

Once I lived the life of a millionaire,
Spent all my money, I just did not care.
Took all my friends out for a good time,
Bought bootleg whiskey, champagne and wine.

Then I began to fall so low,
Lost all my good friends, I did not have nowhere to go.
I get my hands on a dollar again,
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins.

'Cause no, no, nobody knows you
When you're down and out.
In your pocket, not one penny,
And as for friends, you don't have any.

When you finally get back up on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.

When you finally get back upon your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your good old long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.

 

 

On Battleship Hill, by PJ Harvey

Feliz fin de semana!

The scent of Thyme carried on the wind

Stings my face into remembering

Cruel nature has won again

Cruel nature has won again

On Battleship Hills caved in trenches

A hateful feeling still lingers

Even now 80 years later

Cruel nature, cruel, cruel nature

The land returns to how it has always been

Thyme carried on the wind

Jagged mountains, jutting out

Cracked like teeth in a rotten mouth

On Battleship Hill I hear the wind

Say, "Cruel nature has won again"

Cruel nature has won again…
