Era Um Garoto Que Como Eu Amava Os Beatles e Os Rolling Stones

There was a boy who like me
Loved The Beatles and The Rolling Stones
He traveled the world always singing
The beautiful things of America

He wasn't handsome, but even so
There were a thousand girls interested
He sang Help and Ticket to Ride
Oh Lady Jane and Yesterday

He sang long live to freedom
But a letter, unexpectedly
Separated him from his guitar
He was called to America

Stop! With Rolling Stones
Stop! With Beatles songs
He was sent to Vietnam
To fight with Vietcongs

Ratá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá

There was a boy who like me
Loved The Beatles and The Rolling Stones
He traveled the world, but ended up
Fighting the war in Vietnam

He no longer has long hair
He doesn't play his guitar anymore, but
An instrument that always gives
The same note, ra-tá-tá-tá

He has no friends, he doesn't see girls
Only dead people falling to the ground
He won't return to his country
Because he's dead in Vietnam

Stop! With Rolling Stones
Stop! With Beatles songs
In his chest, there is no heart
But two medals yes

Ratá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá

Ratá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá

Ratá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá

Ratá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Tatá-tá tá tá, tatá-rá tá tá
Ratá-tá tá tá
Ratá-tá tá tá
