Everybody's Talkin'

 




Canción escrita por  Fred Neil en 1966. Traigo la versión interpretada por Harry Nilsson, de 1969 incluida en la película Midnight Cowboy, de John Schlesinger.


Letra.

Everybody's talking at me

I don't hear a word they're saying Only the echoes of my mind

People stopping, staring I can't see their faces Only the shadows of their eyes

I'm going where the sun keeps shining Through the pouring rain Going where the weather suits my clothes

Banking off of the northeast winds Sailing on a summer breeze And skipping over the ocean like a stone

Wah, 

I'm going where the sun keeps shining Through the pouring rain Going where the weather suits my clothes

Banking off of the northeast winds Sailing on a summer breeze And skipping over the ocean like a stone

Everybody's talking at me Can't hear a word they're saying Only the echoes of my mind

I won't let you leave my love behind No, I won't let you leave Wah, wah

I won't let you leave my love behind.​

Letra Oh my name it ain't nothin' My age it means less The country I come from Is called the Midwest I was taught and brought up there The laws to abide And that land that I live in Has God on its side Oh, the history books tell it They tell it so well The cavalries charged The Indians fell The cavalries charged The Indians died Oh, the country was young With God on its side The Spanish-American War had its day And the Civil War, too Was soon laid away And the names of the heroes I was made to memorize With guns in their hands And God on their side The First World War, boys It came and it went The reason for fighting I never did get But I learned to accept it Accept it with pride For you d
