The Dogs of B.A.

I hung myself out on the line

Beneath an Argentina sky

And I expected there to dry

Beneath the Argentina sky

Upon the rooftop here so high

Beneath the Argentina sky

The storm did call me to its side

Beneath the Argentina sky

And the dogs of Buenos Aires they will take you from your sleep

Between the firecrackers cackling and the taxis in the street

And if you wake up lonely better throw some shoes upon those feet

To keep the heartbreak from taking your life

Once I had planned to be your bride

Before this Argentina sky

Now I just tend my wounded pride

Under this Argentina sky

Now I want the rain to fall into my eyes

From this Argentina sky

The thunder to match my anguished cries

Beneath this Argentina sky

I looked into the darkening and while the air did chill

I knew that though I'm here in exile that you should love me still

And when the rain began to pound I lifted up my face until

I was soaked with the ache of the sky

Ella hacía el lavado de una terraza,

Mientras el sol le quemaba la espalda,

Ella intentaba fregar el sudor de su desconsuelo,

Escurrir las lágrimas,

Pero antes que la tarea estuviera terminada,

La ropa todavía doliente en la soga,

Bajó desde el delta un viento poderoso

Why las nubes se cargaron a lo largo del cielo

¡Rápido, adentro, cerrad las ventanas, viene una tormenta!

Sacá tu ropa de la soga.

So many tears could make me blind

Beneath this Argentina sky

But still my love for you I can't deny

Even under Argentina's skies

I'll seek until a path to you I find

Under these Argentina skies

When will you take me back inside

From under Argentina's skies

I looked into the darkening and while the air did chill

I knew that though I'm here in exile that you should love me still

And when the rain began to pound I lifted up my face until
