Éxitos de 1977: Boney M. "Ma Baker"

Boney M: "Ma Baker"

El eurodance y el disco llega también en los setenta de la mano de Boney M, un grupo formado por las cantantes Marcia Barrey y Liz Mitchell de Jamaica, por Maizie Williams de las Antillas Británicas y por Bobby Farrell de Aruba. Tras presentar temas tan conocidos como "Daddy cool" o "Sunny", en 1977 editan el álbum "Love for Sale" que incluía "Ma Baker", éxito total en toda Europa, aunque en EEUU sólo llegó al puesto 95.

Letra: "Ma Baker"

Freeze i'm ma baker

put your hands in the air and give me all your money

This is the story of ma baker the meanest cat from old chicago town

She was the meanest cat

in old chicago town

she was the meanest cat

she really mowed them down

she had no heart at all

no no no heart at all

she was the meanest cat

for she was really tough

she left her husband flat

he wasn't tough enough

she took her boys along

'cos they were mean and strong

Ma ma ma ma

ma baker

she taught her boys

ma ma ma ma

ma baker

to handle there guns

ma ma ma ma

ma baker

she never could cry

ma ma ma ma

ma baker

but she knew how to die

They left a trail of crime

across the usa

and when one boy was killed

she really made them pay

she had no heart at all

no no no heart at all

Ma ma ma ma

(Estribillo)

She met a man she liked

she thought she'd stay with him

one day he informed on them

they did away with him

she didn't care at all

just didn't care at all

Here is a special bulletin

ma baker is the fbi's most wanted woman

her photo is hanging on every post office wall

if you have any information about this woman

please contact the nearest police station

Don't anybody move the money or your life

One day they robbed a bank

it was last foray

the cops appeared to soon

they couldn't get away

with all the loot they had

it made them might mad

and so they shot it out

ma baker and her sons

they didn't want to hang

they died with blazing guns

and so the story ends

of one who left no friends

Ma ma ma ma

(Estribillo)
