Below, I translated the lyrics of the song The Breakdown by Los Lobos from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
How could things be so easy some days
How could things be so easy some days
And so hard in times when I could use
And so hard in times when I could use
Some help coming by my way
Some help coming my way
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
You say that I should be somebody
You say that I should be somebody
Don't you think that I'd be funny
Don't you think that I'd be funny
In a suit and tie, ol' mister nine-to-five
In a suit and tie, ol' mister nine-to-five
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I've been racking my brain
I've been racking my brain
Trying to find a way to make ends meet
Trying to find a way to make ends meet
I've been making two bridges
I've been making two bridges
Write you songs that you can sing
Write you songs that you can sing
There ain't anybody else that I could be
There isn't anybody else that I could be
Say, how long will it be now
Say, how long will it be now
How long will it be now
How long will it be now
How long will it be now
How long will it be now
How long will it take to make him see my side
How long will it take to make him see my side
I ain't no nine to five
I ain't no nine to five
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
If you could only own a mountain made of solid gold
If you could only own a mountain made of solid gold
What difference would it make
What difference would it make
You'd just have more to break
You'd just have more to break
And I don't know why you won't take me for myself
And I don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
