Lyrics of El Cóndor Pasa (If I Could) by Paul Simon,Urubamba,The Jessy Dixon Singers
I′d rather be a sparrow than a snail.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.
I'd rather be a hammer than a nail.
Yes I would.
If I only could,
I surely would.
CHORUS
Away, I′d rather sail away
Like a swan that's here and gone
A man gets tied up to the ground
He gives the world
Its saddest sound,
Its saddest sound.
I'd rather be a forest than a street.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.
I′d rather feel the earth beneath my feet,
Yes I would.
If I only could,
I surely would.
Writer(s): Daniel Alomias Robles, Jorge Milchberg
