Joan Baez

Prison Trilogy Billy Rose

by Joan Baez
Joan Baez

Biografía:

Joan Chandos Báez (Staten Island, Nueva York, 9 de enero de 1941), Joan Baez, cantante estadounidense de música folk, conocida como "La reina de la canción protesta". Caracterizada por una voz potente, aguda, próxima a la de una soprano, y con un vibrato controlado para potenciar la dramatización de las letras de las canciones, Joan Baez es la máxima figura de la canción protesta surgida en los años sesenta, al calor de la Guerra de Vietnam. Su repertorio, no obstante, abarca también lo puramente tradicional, el country y el pop-rock.

Capo 1


G Hm
Billy Rose was a low rider, Billy Rose was a night fighter
C G D
Billy Rose knew trouble like the sound of his own name
Am
Busted on a drunken charge
C
Driving someone else's car
Cm G
The local midnight sheriff's claim to fame

G Hm
In an Arizona jail there are some who tell the tale, how
C G D
Billy fought the sergeant for some milk that he demanded
Am
Knowing they'd remain the boss
C
Knowing he would pay the cost
Cm G
They saw he was severely reprimanded

Em Hm
In the blackest cell on A Block
Em Hm
He hanged himself at dawn
Em Hm
With a note stuck to the bunk head
Am D
Don't mess with me, just take me home

Em D
Come and lay, help us lay
G
young Billy down

G Hm
Luna was a Mexican the law calls an alien
C G D
For coming across the border with a baby and a wife
Am
Though the clothes upon his back were wet
C
Still he thought that he could get
Cm G
Some money and things to start a life

G Hm
It hadn't been too very long when it seemed like everything went wrong
C G D
They didn't even have the time to find themselves a home
Am
This foreigner, a brown-skin male
C
Thrown inside a Texas jail
Cm G
It left the wife and baby quite alone

Em Hm
He eased the pain inside him
Em Hm
With a needle in his arm
Em Hm
But the dope just crucified him
Am D
He died to no one's great alarm

Em D
Come and lay, help us lay
G
Young Luna down
Em D
And we're gonna raze, raze the prisons
G
To the ground

G Hm C
Kilowatt was an aging con of 65 who stood a chance to stay alive
G D
And leave the joint and walk the streets again
Am
As the time he was to leave drew near
C
He suffered all the joy and fear
Cm G
Of leaving 35 years in the pen

G Hm
And on the day of his release he was approached by the police
C G D
Who took him to the warden walking slowly by his side
AM
The warden said "You won't remain here
C
But it seems a state retainer
Cm G
Claims another 10 years of your life."

Em Hm
He stepped out in the Texas sunlight
Em Hm
The cops all stood around
Em Hm
Old Kilowatt ran 50 yards
Am D
Then threw himself down on the ground

Em D
They might as well just have laid
G
The old man down
Em D
And we're gonna raze, raze the prisons
G
To the ground
Em D
Help us raze, raze the prisons
G
To the ground
