Lyrics for Song: El Lute 
Lyrics for Album: Magic Of
  
               
  8664>This is the story of "El Lute"
 A Man who was born to be hunted like a wild animal
 Because he was poor
 But he refused to accept his fate
 And today his honor has been restored
  (Music interlude)
  He was only nineteen and was sentenced to die
 For something that somebody else did and blamed on El Lute
 Then they changed it to life so he could escape
 From then on they chased him 
 And searched for him day and night
 All over Spain
 But the search was in vain
 for El Lute
  He had only seen the dark side of life
 The man they called El Lute
 And he wanted a home just like you and like me
 In a country where all would be free
 So he taught himself to read and to write
 It didn't help El Lute
 He was one who had dared to escape
 Overnight they had to find El Lute
  So the fame of his name
 Spread like wildfire all over the land
 With a price on his head
 People still gave him bread
 And they gave him a hand
 For they knew he was right
 And his fight was their fight
  No one gave you a chance in the Spain of those days
 and was every place they had put up the face of El Lute
 And he robbed when he could
 Like once Robin Hood
 They finally caught him and that seemed the end
 But they caught him in vain
 'Cause a change came for Spain
 and El Lute
  He had only seen the dark side of life
 The man they called El Lute
 And he wanted a home just like you and like me
 In a country where all would be free
 And then freedom really came
 To his land and to El Lute
