Honky Tonk Heroes

Billy Shaver

Lyrics Translation

Low down leaving sun
Done, did everything that needs done
Woe is me, why can't I see?
I'd best be leaving well enough alone

Them neon light nights, couldn't stay out of fights
Keep a-haunting me in memories
Well there's one in every crowd for crying out loud
Why was it always turning out to be me?

Where does it go? The good Lord only knows
Seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
And generally blowing all my hard-earned pay

Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
For lovable losers, no account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me (hey, hey)

Where does it go? The good Lord only knows
Seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
Generally blowing all of my hard-earned pay

Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
For lovable losers and no account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me

Where do it go? The good Lord only knows
And seemed like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables and hawking them tables
And generally blowing all of my hard-earned pay

Well, piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
For them lovable losers and no account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me, yeah

Low down leaving sun
Sol se pondo lá embaixo
Done, did everything that needs done
Feito, fiz tudo que precisava ser feito
Woe is me, why can't I see?
Ai de mim, por que não consigo ver?
I'd best be leaving well enough alone
É melhor eu deixar bem como está
Them neon light nights, couldn't stay out of fights
Aquelas noites de luzes neon, não conseguia ficar fora das brigas
Keep a-haunting me in memories
Continuam me assombrando em memórias
Well there's one in every crowd for crying out loud
Bem, há um em cada multidão, por Deus
Why was it always turning out to be me?
Por que sempre tinha que ser eu?
Where does it go? The good Lord only knows
Para onde vai? Só o bom Deus sabe
Seems like it was just the other day
Parece que foi apenas no outro dia
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
Eu estava no Green Gables, atendendo as mesas
And generally blowing all my hard-earned pay
E geralmente gastando todo o meu dinheiro suado
Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
Blues do rolo de piano, dancei buracos nos meus sapatos
There weren't another other way to be
Não havia outra maneira de ser
For lovable losers, no account boozers
Para perdedores adoráveis, beberrões sem conta
And honky tonk heroes like me (hey, hey)
E heróis de honky tonk como eu (ei, ei)
Where does it go? The good Lord only knows
Para onde vai? Só o bom Deus sabe
Seems like it was just the other day
Parece que foi apenas no outro dia
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
Eu estava no Green Gables, atendendo as mesas
Generally blowing all of my hard-earned pay
Geralmente gastando todo o meu dinheiro suado
Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
Blues do rolo de piano, dancei buracos nos meus sapatos
There weren't another other way to be
Não havia outra maneira de ser
For lovable losers and no account boozers
Para perdedores adoráveis e beberrões sem conta
And honky tonk heroes like me
E heróis de honky tonk como eu
Where do it go? The good Lord only knows
Para onde vai? Só o bom Deus sabe
And seemed like it was just the other day
E parecia que foi apenas no outro dia
I was down at Green Gables and hawking them tables
Eu estava no Green Gables e atendendo as mesas
And generally blowing all of my hard-earned pay
E geralmente gastando todo o meu dinheiro suado
Well, piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
Bem, blues do rolo de piano, dancei buracos nos meus sapatos
There weren't another other way to be
Não havia outra maneira de ser
For them lovable losers and no account boozers
Para aqueles perdedores adoráveis e beberrões sem conta
And honky tonk heroes like me, yeah
E heróis de honky tonk como eu, sim
Low down leaving sun
Bajo el sol que se va
Done, did everything that needs done
Hecho, hice todo lo que necesitaba hacer
Woe is me, why can't I see?
Ay de mí, ¿por qué no puedo ver?
I'd best be leaving well enough alone
Sería mejor que dejara las cosas como están
Them neon light nights, couldn't stay out of fights
Esas noches de luces de neón, no podía evitar las peleas
Keep a-haunting me in memories
Siguen atormentándome en mis recuerdos
Well there's one in every crowd for crying out loud
Siempre hay uno en cada multitud que grita a viva voz
Why was it always turning out to be me?
¿Por qué siempre resultaba ser yo?
Where does it go? The good Lord only knows
¿A dónde va? Solo el buen Señor lo sabe
Seems like it was just the other day
Parece que fue apenas el otro día
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
Estaba en Green Gables, vendiendo esas mesas
And generally blowing all my hard-earned pay
Y en general, gastando todo mi dinero ganado con esfuerzo
Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
Blues de rollo de piano, bailé hasta hacer agujeros en mis zapatos
There weren't another other way to be
No había otra forma de ser
For lovable losers, no account boozers
Para los perdedores adorables, los borrachos sin cuenta
And honky tonk heroes like me (hey, hey)
Y héroes de honky tonk como yo (hey, hey)
