Singer/Band:
Boney M
Capo 1
He was Gonly nineteen and was sentenced to die
for something that somebody else did, and blamed on El Clute
AmThen they changed it to life, and so he could escape
From then on they Dchased him, and searched for him day and night G all
over Spain
But the D7search was in vain for El G Lute
G7 He had only seen the Cdark side of life, the man they called El G
Lute
And he wanted a D7 home just like you and like me in a country where G all
would be free
G7 So he taught himself to Cread and to write, it didn't help El G Lute
He was one who had D7 dared to escape overnight
They had to Cfind El G Lute
Soon the Gmfame of his name, spread like wild fire all D7over the land
Cmwith a price on his head people still gave him bread and they D7 gave
him a hand
Gm For they D7knew he was right, and his G fight was their fight
No one Ggave you a chance in the Spain of those days
On the walls every place they had put up the face of El C Lute
And he Amrobbed where he could just like once Robin Hood
They finally D7 caught him and that seemed the end but they G caught him
in vain
‘cause a D change came for Spain and El G Lute
G7 He had only seen the C dark side of life, the man they called El G
Lute
And he wanted a D7 home just like you and like me in a country where G all
would be free
G7 And then freedom really C came to his land and also to El G Lute
Now he walks in the D7 light of a sunny new day, he man they C called El
G Lute
