Broken Man

Well he walked down to the stationCaminó hasta la estación

With a pistol in his handCon una pistola en la mano

The heat was rising off the desert sandEl calor subía del desierto

And it scorched the baren landY quemaba la tierra árida

Well he packed up his bags and he headed westEmpacó sus maletas y se dirigió al oeste

With a dream in his pocket he would rideCon un sueño en el bolsillo que lo llevaría

The heat was rising on the desert sandEl calor subía en el desierto

From the truth he couldn't hideDe la verdad que no podía ocultar

Broken manHombre roto

Broken man with a pistol in his handHombre roto con una pistola en la mano

The heat was rising on the desert sandEl calor subía en el desierto

And it scorched the baren landY quemaba la tierra árida

When he walked out of the factoryCuando salió de la fábrica

With a pay check in his handCon un cheque en la mano

The heat was rising off the city streetsEl calor subía de las calles de la ciudad

And it scorched his careless handY quemaba su mano descuidada

As he headed down his lonely streetsMientras caminaba por sus solitarias calles

In his broken down part of townEn su parte deteriorada de la ciudad

He crossed over the dividing lineCruzó la línea divisoria

And swore he'd never be foundY juró que nunca sería encontrado

Broken man with a pay check in his handHombre roto con un cheque en la mano

The heat was rising off the city streetsEl calor subía de las calles de la ciudad

And he scorched is calloused handY quemaba su mano callosa

Well he walked down to the stationCaminó hasta la estación

With a pistol in his handCon una pistola en la mano

The heat was rising off the city streetsEl calor subía de las calles de la ciudad

And it scorched his careless handY quemaba su mano descuidada

Well he walked out of his officeSalió de su oficina

With a briefcase in his handCon un maletín en la mano

His greed has turned to bitternessSu codicia se convirtió en amargura

Like so many broken plansComo tantos planes rotos

He grabbed his coatTomó su abrigo

Left his resignation on the deskDejó su renuncia en el escritorio

He didn't leave a forwarding addressNo dejó una dirección de contacto

The heat was rising throughout the landEl calor subía por todo el país

And through the night he ranY durante la noche corrió
