El Lute

This is the story of El Lute

A man who was born to be hunted like a wild animal

Because he was poor

But he refused to accept his fate

And today his honor has been restoredHe was only nineteen and he was sentenced to die

For something that somebody else did and blamed on El Lute

Then they changed it to life and so he could escape

From then on they chased him and searched for him day and night

All over Spain but the search was in vain for El LuteHe had only seen the dark side of life the man they called El Lute

And he wanted a home just like you and like me

In a country where all would be free

So he taught himself to read and to write it didn't help El Lute

He was one who had dared to escape overnight they had to find El LuteNo one gave you a chance in the Spain of those days

On the walls every place they had put up the face of El Lute

And he robbed where he could just like once Robin Hood

They finally caught him and that seemed the end

But they caught him in vain 'cause a change came for Spain and El LuteHe had only seen the dark side of life the man they called El Lute

And he wanted a home just like you and like me

In a country where all would be free

And then freedom really came to his land and also to El Lute

Now he walks in the light of a sunny new day the man they called El Lute
