La strada di Bruce

Finiamo l'anno e iniziamo il 2018 con due bellissime canzoni (grazie, sempre, a Radio Capital). Come ultimo pezzo del 2017 ho scelto "The way is it" di Bruce Hornsby & The Range, un brano del 1986 dall'omonimo album. Gran bel pezzo. Ma altrettanto bello sarà quello di domani. Fidatevi. Poi dal 2 gennaio vediamo se qualcuno pubblica qualcosa di buono altrettanto valido ma non sarà facile. Intanto vi auguro un buon fine 2017 a tutti con la speranza in un 2018 migliore indipendentemente da come sia andato quest'anno. Buon ascolto e a domani!!

The way it is (Bruce Hornsby & The Range)

Standing in line, marking time 
Waitinf for the welfare dime 
'Cause they can't buy a job 

The man in a silt suuit hurries by 
As he catches a poor old lady's eye 
Just for fun he says 
'Get a job' 

That's just the way it is 
Some things will never change 
That's just the way it is 
Ah, but dont you believe them 

Said hey little boy 
you can't go where the others go 
'Cuz you don't look like they do 
Said hey old man 
How can you stand to think that way 
And did you really think about it 
before you made the rules 

He said, son 

That's just the way it is 
Some things will never change 
That's just the way it is 
Ah, but dont you believe them 

Well they passed a law in '64 
To give those who ain't got a little more 
But it only goes so far 
Because the law don't change another's mind 
When all it sees at the hiring time 
Is the line on the color bar 

That's just the way it is 
Some things will never change 
That's just the way it is 
That's just the way it is 
it is, it is, it is...
