Casgabarl!
When I was a little boy
We would spend a lot of time
Around the big smokestack in my hometown
People from the neighbourhood
They were very poor and found it hard to
Pay for food to eat at mealtime
I threw the ball so hard
And when it broke the window
Old man he was very mad at me
When I was a little boy!
The town of Casgabarl!
Where my heart returns
All my friends have left somewhere
To live their own life
I still remember well
Under the blue sky
The shades of each old memory
The time I spent with my family
At 5 PM
All the little children
Start walking and going home
Music on the radio
Sounds of a car outside
I wondered who was coming by to my house
We would see US Marines
Selling something in the camp
I couldn´t wait to buy myself some candy
The summer carnival
Fireworks in the sky
Waited all the yaer to see that day
When I was a little boy
The town of Casgabarl!
Where my heart returns
My old house isn´t standing now
Replaced by something new
I still remember well
Under the blue sly
The colour of my mother´s eyes
The hppiness within her smile

At 9 PM
All the little children
Go to bed to see the dream
Who´s not sleeping´
Who´s not sleeping´
You? You? Or You? (which one?)
The ghost is coming
To get the children with an empty stomach too,
(for tonight I´m)
Happy! Happy!
He can eat up many, very many children
Let´s get this one, I´ll have him for my dinner tonight
They were already sleeping
And It´s quieter than the graveyard
The moon started to fade away
The sun came up to light the starry sky
The town of Casgabarl!
Where my heart returns
All my friends have left somewhere
To live their own life
I still remember well
Under the blue sky
The shades of each old memory
The time I spent with my family
At 5 PM
All the little children
Start walking and going home
At 9 PM all the little children
Go to bed to see the dream
At 7 PM All the little children
Wake up to start another day
