<pre><font size='+2'>BORN IN PUERTO RICO lyrics PAUL SIMON</font><br>SALVADOR<br />
 I was born in Puerto Rico<br />
 We came here when I was a child<br />
 Before I reached the age of sixteen<br />
 I was running with the gang and we were wild<br />
 <br />
 He keeps looking but he don`t recognize me.<br />
 Some guy from Lexington or Park<br />
 Red beans and rice from kitchen windows<br />
 Supper-time and the barrio is dark.<br />
 <br />
 No one knows you like I do<br />
 Nobody can know your heart the way I do<br />
 No one can testify to all that you`ve been through<br />
 But I will.<br />
 <br />
 SAL & THE VAMPIRES<br />
 I was born in Puerto Rico<br />
 And my blood is Taino<br />
 Spanish Caribbean my soul<br />
 <br />
 SALVADOR<br />
 We came here wearing summer clothes in winter<br />
 Hearts of sunshine in the cold<br />
 Your family rented this apartment<br />
 You`d watch the street lamps from your perch<br />
 In the sacramental hour your stepfather in<br />
 black<br />
 Preached the fire of the Pentecostal Church<br />
 No one knows you like I do<br />
 Nobody can know your heart the way I do<br />
 No one can testify to all that you`ve been<br />
 through<br />
 But this will.<br />
 <br />
 SAL & THE VAMPIRES<br />
 I was born in Puerto Rico<br />
 Came here when I was a child.<br />
 <br />
 SALVADOR<br />
 Small change and sunlight, then I left these<br />
 streets for good.<br />
 My days as short as they were wild.<br />

 Your features blurred in every grainy photo<br />

 <br />
 SALVADOR<br />
 Twenty years inside, today you`re free.<br />
 <br />
 You cannot even read your story<br />
 The pages piling up in shame<br />
 Before the words released you,<br />
 the guard would kill the light<br />
 The night you took The Capeman for your name.<br />
 <br />
 CHORUS<br />
 I was born in Puerto Rico<br />
 I was born in Puerto Rico<br />
 <br />
 I was born in Puerto Rico<br />

SALVADOR
I was born in Puerto Rico
We came here when I was a child
Before I reached the age of sixteen
I was running with the gang and we were wild

He keeps looking but he don`t recognize me.
Some guy from Lexington or Park
Red beans and rice from kitchen windows
Supper-time and the barrio is dark.

No one knows you like I do
Nobody can know your heart the way I do
No one can testify to all that you`ve been through
But I will.

SAL & THE VAMPIRES
I was born in Puerto Rico
And my blood is Taino
Spanish Caribbean my soul

SALVADOR
We came here wearing summer clothes in winter
Hearts of sunshine in the cold
Your family rented this apartment
You`d watch the street lamps from your perch
In the sacramental hour your stepfather in
black
Preached the fire of the Pentecostal Church
No one knows you like I do
Nobody can know your heart the way I do
No one can testify to all that you`ve been
through
But this will.

SAL & THE VAMPIRES
I was born in Puerto Rico
Came here when I was a child.

SALVADOR
Small change and sunlight, then I left these
streets for good.
My days as short as they were wild.

You cannot even read your story

The night you took The Capeman for your name.
