...Algo sobre L.A. Woman...

__________________________


"Como en todos los álbumes de The Doors, la lírica tiene un papel muy importante, y este disco no es la excepción. Encontramos la despedida de Morrison a su querida Los Ángeles (al poco tiempo viajó a París para no volver jamás) en L. A. Woman, que también es un estremecedor canto a la muerte y a la soledad"

"Canto (enfervorizado) a Los Ángeles como ciudad nocturna. Canto a la soledad. O canto de despedida. Muchas lecturas para un tema construido como un crescendo y que The doors solamente tocó en directo una vez, poniendo colofón a uno de sus últimos conciertos"


"Al final de la letra aparece la referencia a Mr. Mojo, que era el nombre que Jim Morrison pensaba utilizar cuando desapareciese de la vida pública ("En África")"


THE DOORS - L.A. WOMAN

Well, I just got into town about an hour ago
Took a look around, see which way the wind blow
Where the little girls in their Hollywood bungalows

Are you a lucky little lady in The City of Light
Or just another lost angel...City of Night
City of Night, City of Night, City of Night, woo, c'mon

L.A. Woman, L.A. Woman
L.A. Woman Sunday afternoon
L.A. Woman Sunday afternoon
L.A. Woman Sunday afternoon
Drive thru your suburbs
Into your blues, into your blues, yeah
Into your blue-blue Blues
Into your blues, ohh, yeah

I see your hair is burnin'
Hills are filled with fire
If they say I never loved you
You know they are a liar
Drivin' down your freeways
Midnite alleys roam
Cops in cars, the topless bars
Never saw a woman...
So alone, so alone
So alone, so alone

Motel Money Murder Madness
Let's change the mood from glad to sadness

Mr. Mojo Risin', Mr. Mojo Risin'
Mr. Mojo Risin', Mr. Mojo Risin'
Got to keep on risin'
Mr. Mojo Risin', Mr. Mojo Risin'
Mojo Risin', gotta Mojo Risin'
Mr. Mojo Risin', gotta keep on risin'
Risin', risin'
Gone risin', risin'
I'm gone risin', risin'
I gotta risin', risin'
Well, risin', risin'
I gotta, wooo, yeah, risin'
Woah, ohh yeah

Well, I just got into town about an hour ago
Took a look around, see which way the wind blow
Where the little girls in their Hollywood bungalows

Are you a lucky little lady in The City of Light
Or just another lost angel...City of Night
City of Night, City of Night, City of Night, woah, c'mon

L.A. Woman, L.A. Woman
L.A. Woman, your my woman
Little L.A. Woman, Little L.A. Woman
L.A. L.A. Woman Woman
L.A. Woman c'mon
