about

"Bajo La Luna" is the 10th and final track on the new Cuban Cowboys album Diablo Mambo (Muy Nice Music, out Nov. 9, 2010), which sounds something like a harder-rocking version of Ry Cooder's Chavez Ravine. Edgy, attitudinal, bilingual guitar rock, on this track singing about how "one day the sun was hung over drunk." Sound Roots, World Music Blog

lyrics

Bajo La Luna

Mira pa’ arriba mijo a what we got
A full moon tonight
Moon say: “I don’t know what I want, but I know what I like.”

If she grumpy in the morning that’s cuz
The Sun come out
While Moon only has to whisper
The Sun feels the need to shout

Entre dia y noche hay un gran amor
[Between day and night, there is a great love]
Cuando sube la luna, cuando baja el sol
[When the moon rises, when the sun goes down]
This ain’t no lunar disco, this ain’t no mess around
When the Moon come up, the Sun go

Bajo, bajo la Luna, Under the Moon alright
The stars say they be coming over
The Sun won’t melt your wings tonight.

One day the Sun was hung over, drunk
On the light of the Moon,
“Will my face grow to fit my mask?
Is that what you think is true?”

Moon shot back to her lover
“Sun, If you only knew
Never pay attention to what I say.
Only how I say it to you.”

Entre dia y noche hay un gran amor
[Between day and night, there is a great love]
Cuando sube la luna, cuando baja el sol
[When the moon rises, when the sun goes down]
This ain’t no lunar disco, this ain’t no mess around
When the Moon come up, the Sun go

Bajo, bajo la Luna, Under the Moon alright
All the lobos shout together
To keep the Sun awake at night.
