Ya hemos llegado al viernes! Para terminar esta semana dedicada a canciones relacionadas con Ruby, nos despedimos con este temazo dedicado a Zed Shaw…
In the ghetto, de Elvis Presley
As the snow flies
On a cold and gray chicago mornin
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
cause if theres one thing that she dont need
Its another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto
People, dont you understand
The child needs a helping hand
Or hell grow to be an angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me,
Are we too blind to see,
Do we simply turn our heads
And look the other way
Well the world turns
And a hungry little boy with a runny nose
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto
And his hunger burns
So he starts to roam the streets at night
And he learns how to steal
And he learns how to fight
In the ghetto
Then one night in desperation
A young man breaks away
He buys a gun, steals a car,
Tries to run, but he dont get far
And his mama cries
As a crowd gathers round an angry young man
Face down on the street with a gun in his hand
In the ghetto
As her young man dies,
On a cold and gray chicago mornin,
Another little baby child is born
In the ghetto
Y con esto nos despedimos de este especial… Es una pena no haber encontrado el vídeo de la canción que me dió la idea de hacer este especial, “Ruby Dear“, de Talking Heads, pero no se puede tener todo en la vida!
Quedan muchas canciones relacionadas con Ruby, os reto a buscar canciones para Rails… y ya puestos, para Merb! Eso si que tendrá mérito…
