Oh, Celina Songtext
von The Bastard Suns

Oh some folks get lucky, only a precious few
Born into money, kept clean as the dew
But there were no silver spoons on the wrong side of the tracks
Just a rusty old fork stuck square in your back

Oh Celina!
I was bruised and battered
Confused and shattered
Had no strength left in reserve
I was but half a man until you took my hand
You′re still twice the woman I deserve

And there in the gutter is where I drew my first breath
The minute I started living I started praying for death
'Cause there were just no footholds to help me over the wall
And the farther I climbed up the harder I′d fall


Oh Celina!
I was bruised and battered
Confused and shattered
Had no strength left in reserve
I was but half a man until you took my hand
You're still twice the woman I deserve

Drunken and disheveled
Hand in hand with the devil
Not a useful bone in my body or so the prostitutes would say
But you gave me a home that I could call my own so far and away from my destitute days

Oh Celina!
I was bruised and battered
Confused and shattered
Had no strength left in reserve
I was but half a man until you took my hand
You're still twice the woman I deserve
