Letra de Easter Eve

Well, me and my son of only fourteen A finer young gentleman that you've never seen We went out walking on Easter Eve Just to pass some time togetherWell, he asked me some questions of things that I'd done But I kept it good natured, we were just having fun And we talked about everything under the sun And the Easter bells were chimingSo we walked for a while, to a café we went For we were hungry from the time that we'd spent We carried no malice or any contempt And both our hearts were shiningWell, we weren't there long before my kid said "Hey, there's a man over there and he's looking our way" "Pay no attention", I said to the lad "Let's just mind our own business this evening"Well, a man approached said, "What are you staring at?" And that if we didn't stop gawking he'd take us out back And teach us some manners, it was simple as that "Keep your eyes to yourselves, you bastards"Well, I looked up and said, "Why don't you just sit down?" "You're walking here, sir, on very thin ground" "There's nobody gawking or looking around" "And you're alarming all of the patrons"Well, I guess that I shouldn't have said that 'Cause he raised his voice, said, "Get ready to scrap" And with that he gave my kid's head a snap Said, "Come and get what you've got coming"Well, my son stood up and hit him a lick And I tried to stop him but it happened so quick Then he smashed the man's head down in the deck He was giving that fella a beatingBut the man reached down pulled out a small gun And he pointed it straight at the head of my son But with a long neck bottle the kid slashed at his jaw And the pistol fell down on the tableWell, thank God the cops came and broke up the brawl There was blood on the ceiling and blood on the wall I said to my son, "You know you don't win 'em all" This has sure been one hell of an eveningHe said, "You know, Dad, I never even saw that gal" "But I wasn't going to stand for him threatening us now" "And I hope you forgive me for being so wild" "Here on Easter Evening"They arrested us all and took us to jail But ten minutes later we were all out on bail And the wife of the man came up to my son And said, "Thank you, young man for what you have done""You know my husband is jealous and very cruel" "And whenever we're out, he always acts like a fool" "And I'm gonna quit him now that they got him locked up" "And I hope to hell that he will rot"Well, me and my son of only fourteen A finer young gentleman you've never seen We went out walking one Easter Eve And left with that man's wife that evening
