Original Lyrics
Translation in Spanish
Up in the mornin′ with the sound of crows that keep me awake
Up in the mornin′ with the sound of crows that keep me awake
A two-and-froin' with the hounds and grain is calling to make
Un dos y dos con los perros y el grano está llamando a hacer
A storm is comin′ but this land ain't ours to forsake
A storm is comin′ but this land ain't ours to forsake
I made a promise but the words are like the first thing you take
Hice una promesa pero las palabras son como lo primero que tomas.
It's heavy lifting and my hands are sore but no time for breaks
Es un trabajo pesado y me duelen las manos, pero no hay tiempo para descansos.
My knees don′t work the same but faith ain′t so easy to shake
My knees don′t work the same but faith ain′t so easy to shake
So what you gonna' take
Entonces, ¿qué vas a llevarte?
When I ain′t got nothin' left?
When I ain′t got nothin' left?
So what you gonna′ take
So what you gonna′ take
When I ain't got nothin′ left to give
When I ain't got nothin′ left to give
You're biting the hands that feed you
Estás golpeando las manos que te alimentan.
You're biting the hands that feed
Estás golpeando las manos que te alimentan.
The day is long and night is short like a cheap glass of wine
El dĂa es largo y la noche es corta como una copa de vino barato.
I make my way back like the cattle in the field takin′ time
I make my way back like the cattle in the field takin′ time
I missed the sunset ′cos my eyes were planted still in the ground
I missed the sunset ′cos my eyes were planted still in the ground
My clothes are worn and kind of too big for this piece of mind
Mi ropa está desgastada y me queda un poco grande para esta tranquilidad.
It's heavy lifting and my hands are sore and starting to break
Es un trabajo pesado y me duelen las manos y empiezan a romperse.
My knees don′t work the same but my faith ain't so easy to shake
My knees don′t work the same but my faith ain't so easy to shake
So what you gonna′ do, when I ain't got nothing′ left?
So what you gonna′ do, when I ain't got nothing′ left?
What you gonna' take, when I ain't got nothin′ left to give?
What you gonna' take, when I ain't got nothin′ left to give?
You′re biting the hands that feed you
You′re biting the hands that feed you
You're biting the hands that feed
Estás golpeando las manos que te alimentan.
