Dallas After Midnight TRADUCCIÓN - Ray Wylie Hubbard (Impressão)

I pulled into the alley behind the liquor store

turned out the lights, left the motor runnin' opened up the door,

I flashed a grin and said, Jack this is gonna be a piece of cake,

later tonight we'll head down to the Last Stand, split up the take.

Sittin' there in the darkness, I take a drink of wine,

Feel'n high and fast and loose, so right

wait for the rush to hit me and it feels so fine.

Then I think of somethin' never realized,

if I get shot tonight, I ain't never been baptized.

Oh, Dallas after midnight

I came runnin' back, blinded by sweat, blood and tears.

I said, Jack the cat had a gun, hah, let's get outa here.

I didn't say nothin' as we drove away.

I kept askin' myself how'd I ever get so mean I couldn't pray?

Oh, Dallas after midnight

Now there ain't nothin' I like better than drivin' on hard concrete,

I'd rather hold a steerin' wheel in my hands than a woman at my feet.

Ever since I was a little kid I was always rowdy and loud,

Now here I am 34 still runnin' around with the wrong crowd.

Oh, Dallas after midnight

We had such plans for when we got to Mexico

After a high-speed chase we got caught south of San Angelo,

Well the judge he asked, why'd you want to go and rob a liquor store?

I said, well your honor it's hard to live in Dallas when you're white-trash and poor.

Oh, Dallas after midnight

Oh, Dallas after midnight, Dallas after midnight

Oh, Dallas after midnight

Oh, Dallas after midnight, Dallas after midnight

Me metí en el callejón detrás de la licorería

apagué las luces, dejé el motor encendido, abrí la puerta,

sonreí y dije, Jack esto va a ser pan comido,

más tarde esta noche iremos al Último Bastión, repartiremos el botín.

Sentado allí en la oscuridad, tomo un trago de vino,

sintiéndome eufórico y suelto, tan bien

espero que la emoción me golpee y se siente tan bien.

Luego pienso en algo que nunca me di cuenta,

si me disparan esta noche, nunca he sido bautizado.
