In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand 00:10
With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand 00:19

Letra:

[English]

In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand

With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand

I'm a long way from home,Lord,I miss my loved ones so

In the early morning rain with no place to go

Out on runway number nine a big 707 set to go

And, I'm stuck here in the grass where the pavement never grows

Now, the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast

Well, there she goes, my friend, she'll be rolling down at last

Hear the mighty engines roar, see the silver wing on high

She's away and westward bound, far above the clouds she'll fly

There the morning rain don't fall and the sun always shines

She'll be flying over my home in about three hours time

This old airport's got me down, it's no earthly good to me

And I'm stuck here on the ground as cold and drunk as I can be

You can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train

So, I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain

You can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train

So, I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain

Gramática:

  • In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand

    ➔ Frase preposicional modificando la circunstancia (tiempo y posesión)

    ➔ La frase preposicional "In the early morning rain" establece la escena, indicando el tiempo y las condiciones climáticas. "With a dollar in my hand" describe aún más la situación del narrador, mostrando una falta de recursos financieros.

  • I'm a long way from home, Lord, I miss my loved ones so

    ➔ Declaración de distancia (frase adverbial "a long way from home") + Interjección ("Lord") + Intensificador ("so")

    "A long way from home" es una frase adverbial que modifica el verbo "I'm", indicando la distancia. "Lord" es una interjección que expresa emoción. "So" intensifica el sentimiento de extrañar a los seres queridos.

  • Out on runway number nine a big 707 set to go

    ➔ Inversión (Colocando la frase preposicional al principio) + cláusula relativa reducida ("set to go")

    ➔ Normalmente sería "A big 707 [is] out on runway number nine". La frase preposicional se adelanta para enfatizar. "set to go" es una cláusula relativa reducida (which is set to go), que modifica el sustantivo "707".

  • Now, the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast

    ➔ Pasado simple + Adjetivo como complemento ("tasted good")

    "Tasted good" usa el adjetivo "good" para describir el estado del licor, actuando como un complemento del sujeto después del verbo copulativo "tasted". "Were fast" podría interpretarse de diferentes maneras. Aquí, fast es un adjetivo, que significa fácil (de seducir).

    ➔ Presente simple con significado futuro + Frase adverbial de dirección + Tiempo futuro (will)

  • There the morning rain don't fall and the sun always shines

    ➔ Presente simple con contracción negativa (don't) + Adverbio de frecuencia (always)

    "Don't fall" muestra una declaración negativa en el presente simple. "Always shines" usa el adverbio "always" para indicar que el sol siempre brilla allí.

  • You can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train

    ➔ Verbo modal de habilidad (can) + Contracción negativa (can't) + Estructura comparativa usando 'like'
