Ringo

Baterista.
Surrava os pratos,
ditava o ritmo.
Não batia em ninguém,
nem mandava no pedaço.
Alheio a brigas e birras,
deu todas as chances
à paz.
Viveu rindo, o Ringo!
Só precisou de amor e
um pouco de ajuda
dos amigos.
Sabe-se que é
Feliz...

I'm the greatest
When I was a little boy
Way back home in Liverpool,
My mama told me . . . I was great
Then when I was a teenager,
I knew that I had got something going,
All my friends told me . . . I was great
And now I'm a man
A woman took me by the hand
And you know what she told me . . . I was great
I was in the greatest show on earth,
For what it was worth,
Now I'm only thirty-two,
And all I wanna do, is boogaloo.
I looked in the mirror,
I saw my wife and kids,
And you know what they told
me . . . I was great.
Yes, my name is Billy Shears,
You know it has been for so many years,
Now I'm only thirty-two;
And all I wanna do, is boogaloo.
I'm the greatest, and you
better believe it baby.
