Era Um Garoto Que Como Eu Amava os Beatles e os Rolling Stones [English translation]

He was a boy who just like me loved The Beatles and The Rolling Stones

Traveled the world singing about the beautiful things of America

He wasn't a looker but had thousands of girls into him

Used to sing 'Help' and 'Ticket to ride'

'Oh! Lady Jane' and 'Yesterday'.

Chanted long live to the land of the free

But a letter arrived at short notice

And of his electric guitar he departed

Once he was summoned to America.

Stop! with The Rolling Stones

Stop! with The Beatles songs

He was sent to Vietnam

To fight against the Viet Cong

Bratatat! Bratatat!

Bratatat! Bratatat!

Bratatat! Bratatat!

Bratatat!Bratatat!Bratatat!

He was a boy who just like me loved The Beatles and The Rolling Stones

He has traveled the world but ended up

Fighting in the war in Vietnam

Long hair he no longer have

Doesn't play his guitar

But only the instrument he has in hands

And always the same tune, Bratatat!

No longer has friends and doesn't see any girls

Only sees dead people lying on the floor

To his parents he won't go back

Because he is dead in Vietnam

Stop! with The Rolling Stones

Stop! with The Beatles songs

In his chest, there is no heart

But two medals instead

Bratatat! Bratatat!

Bratatat! Bratatat!

Bratatat! Bratatat!

Bratatat!Bratatat!Bratatat!
