[ Ver Traducción ]
Now the seats are all empty, let the roadies take the stage
pack it up and tear it down
they’re the first to come and last to leave
working for that minimum wage, they’ll set it up in another town.

Tonight the people were so fine, they waited there in line,
and when they got up on their feet they made the show.

And that was sweet but I can hear the sound,
of slamming doors and folding chairs
and that’s a sound they’ll never know.

Now roll them cases out and lift them amps
haul them trusses down and get’em up them ramps
’cause when it comes to movin’ me, you know, you guys are the champs
but when that last guitar’s been packed away, you know that I still want to play
so just make sure you got it all set to go before you come for my piano.

But the band’s on the bus, and they’re ready to go
we’ve got to drive all night and do a show in Chicago
or Detroit, I don’t know, we do so many shows in a row
and these towns all look the same.

We just pass the time in the hotel rooms, and wander ’round backstage
till those lights come up, and we hear that crowd, and we remember why we came.

Now, we got Country and Western on the bus, R and B
we got Disco and 8-tracks and cassettes in stereo
we’ve got rural scenes and magazines and we’ve got truckers on CB
and we got Richard Pryor on the video
and we got time to think of the ones we love while the miles roll away
but the only time that seems too short is the time that we get to play.

People you’ve got the power over what we do
you can sit there and wait or you can pull us through
come along, sing the song, you know that you can’t go wrong.
’cause when that morning sun comes beatin’ down you’re going to wake up in your town.
but we’ll be scheduled to appear, a thousand miles away from here.

People stay just a little bit longer
we want to play just a little bit longer.
now, the promoter don’t mind
and the union don’t mind
if we take a little time and we leave it all behind,
and sing one more song …

Oh, won’t you stay just a little bit longer
please, please, please, say you will.

Fui a buscarlo porque no lo conocía, un gran compositor, preciosa la canción, uno no sabe de los sentimientos solo vas al concierto y luego te retiras.

Gran compositor, muy renombrado, de la vieja escuela de Joni Mitchell, Stephen Stills o James Taylor.

Siempre me gustó este tema :)

Excelente canción. Creó que este mes lanza un disco grabado aquí en España durante la gira de conciertos que dio con David Lindley. Sabes, no se muy bien porque pero escucharle me recuerda a la película MASH.
Por cierto, viniendo de ti el acento del titulo creo que lo has colocado mal, no? :D

Por ahí se empieza y se termina por poner uno un clavel reventon en la oreja, si ves que te da por ponerte traje de flamenca busca un doctor no sea que se extienda y crees una nueva pandemia.

Tranquilo querido, se cura viendo una película de John Wayne, siempre que no sea “El fabuloso mundo del circo” que la rodó en Hispania. :D
