Desperado - Son Of A Gun

 

SON  OF  A  GUN 

Años complicados, como ya es sabido, los del final de los ochenta hasta más que mediados los 90 para el heavy metal, justo hasta la irrupción de esa nueva concepción del sonido heavy mucho más arreglado y adornado, lustroso, reinventado en Power metal, desvirtuado al hacerlo desde la propia concepción de ese sonido, directo, sin aditivos y honesto. Así que encontrar obras en ese arco de tiempo se hace complicado sin caer el las nuevas tendencias de esos años. Y cayendo hoy yo, un poco en la vertiente hard n heavy, traigo al blog a la banda estadounidense "Desperado", un experimento mono disco del músico Dee Snider de Twisted Sister, tras ruptura temporal de estos y antes de su reunión de nuevo. El único fruto de esta banda fue el disco "Bloodied but unbowed" de 1996 del que dejo el tema "Son of a gun", del que dejo un enlace a youtube.

Born to face the dark alone
By his father's guns he'll right the wrong
Following the man in black
Through the desert, to the tower and back, yeah

Nobody can stop a gun
Words or looks never killed someone
Nobody can stop a gun
It's death, the final weapon

He's the son of the gun
He's the son of the gun

Cold as steel and twice as hard
Measuring his manhood by the yard, yeah
Love and dying are his life
Wears his father's iron by his side, he's in love, oh yeah

Nobody ever stopped the gun
Some tried, now their days are done
Nobody ever stopped the gun
It's said, like father, just like son

He's the son of the gun
He's the son of the gun
Just the son of the gun
He's the son, son, son of the gun

Solo

He's the last of time before
Winning every fight, they lost the war, ha ha
Three remain from world of old
As he walks the prophecy unfolds, he's in guns, he's in gun

Nobody can stop his guns
Do their work and the bodies thump
Nobody can stop his guns
They spill some blood and the world moved on

He's the son of the gun
He's the son of the gun
Just the son of the gun
Just the son, son, son, son, son of the gun
