Summer '43 the man's gunnin' for me
Blue and white mean war tonight
They say damn my pride and all
The other cats livin' down eastside
Or maybe just my brim's too wide
Oooh Marie you better grab my jack
And zip gun for me
And I'll face no shame
'Cause tonight's the night I die for our name
Well I'd like to be swingin'
Dancin and singin', just havin' a time
Free to do whatever, now more than ever
I've gotta stick with that gang of mine
(Эй, пачуко!)
(Эй!) Лето 43-го.
(Эй!) За мной идёт охота.
(Эй!) А синие и белые затевают сегодня войну.
(Эй!) Моя честь оскорблена.
(Эй!) Все остальные пижоны живут в Ист-Сайде.
(Эй!) А может, поля моей шляпы слишком широки…
Ах, Мари, лучше захвати бабло
И самопал для меня.
И я не испытаю стыда,
Ведь сегодняшней ночью я умру за нас.
А мне хотелось бы свинговать,
Танцевать и петь, жить в своё удовольствие.
Волен делать что угодно, свободней чем когда-либо,
Я должен торчать в банде своей.

(Hey, patchouco!)
(Hey!) Summer is the 43rd.
(Hey!) The hunt is coming for me.
(Hey!) And blue and white are starting a war today.
(Hey!) My honor is offended.
(Hey!) All the other dudes live on the east side.
(Hey!) Or maybe the brim of my hat is too wide ...
Ah, Marie, better grab the loot
And homemade for me.
And I won't feel shame
'Cause tonight I'll die for us
And I would like to swing
Dance and sing, live for pleasure.
Free to do anything freer than ever
I have to hang around in my gang.
