Boney M - El Lute lyric

This is the story of "El Lute"
A Man who was born to be hunted like a wild animal
Because he was poor
But he refused to accept his fate
And today his honor has been restored
(Music interlude)
He was only nineteen and was sentenced to die
For something that somebody else did and blamed on El Lute
Then they changed it to life so he could escape
From then on they chased him
And searched for him day and night
All over Spain
But the search was in vain
for El Lute
He had only seen the dark side of life
The man they called El Lute
And he wanted a home just like you and like me
In a country where all would be free
So he taught himself to read and to write
It didn't help El Lute
He was one who had dared to escape
Overnight they had to find El Lute
So the fame of his name
Spread like wildfire all over the land
With a price on his head
People still gave him bread
And they gave him a hand
For they knew he was right
And his fight was their fight
No one gave you a chance in the Spain of those days
and was every place they had put up the face of El Lute
And he robbed when he could
Like once Robin Hood
They finally caught him and that seemed the end
But they caught him in vain
'Cause a change came for Spain
and El Lute
He had only seen the dark side of life
The man they called El Lute
And he wanted a home just like you and like me
In a country where all would be free
And then freedom really came
To his land and to El Lute
