CLÁSSICOS PARA A VIDA ETERNA

BAND ON THE RUN (1974) PAUL McCARTNEY & WINGS

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

Sempre houve a celeuma da banda x solo, se é possível a um músico saído de uma banda ser tão bom ou mais quando em carreira solo. Em geral, no cômputo da obra, quase nunca alcançam o mesmo sucesso, mas isso não se aplica a músicas. No caso Beatles x Paul, "Band on the Run" é desses clássicos eleitos por unanimidade. Taca-lhe Paul, McCartney!

Stuck inside these four walls

Sent inside forever

Never seeing no one nice again

Like you, mama, you, mama, you

----

If I ever get out of here

Thought of giving it all away

To a registered charity

All I need is a pint a day 

If I ever get out of here

If we ever get out of here

----

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash

As we fell into the sun

And the first one said to be the second one there

I hope you're having fun

----

Band on the run, band on the run

And the jailer man and sailor Sam

Were searching everyone

For the band on the run, band on the run

Band on the run, band on the run

----

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh

Seeing no one else had come

And a bell was ringing in the village square

For the rabbit on the run

----

Band on the run, band on the run

And the jailer man and sailor Sam

Were searching everyone

For the band on the run, band on the run

----

Yeah, band on the run, the band on the run

Band on the run, band on the run

----

Well, the night was falling as a desert world

Began the settle down

In the town they're searching for us everywhere

But we never will be found

Band on the run, band on the run

----

And the county judge who held a grudge

Will search for evermore

For the band on the run, the band on the run

Band on the run, band on the run
