(instrumental)
I live in a place
where the light doesn't reach
Children can be seen
walking barefoot
without health
(instrumental)
Through the narrow street
a car comes and goes
And when it rains
no one can walk
(pause)
My street has a dark bar
damp walls
But I know that someday
my luck will change
Na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na
(instrumental)
I give my address
to those I offer my friendship
But upon knowing it
they don't want to visit me
(instrumental)
But someday
always by chance
I've seen "friends"
with women in the bar
(pause)
My street has a dark bar
damp walls
But I know that someday
my luck will change
