Dimineața pe răcoare
Eu stau cu fața la soare
Și mă uit la cerul mare
Dimineața pe răcoare.

Dimineața la șosea
Cu gagica altuia
Dimineața pe răcoare
Cu gagica la plimbare.

Așa dulce este viața
Pe la patru dimineața
Dimineața pe răcoare
Fără bani in buzunare.

English Translation:

In the morning’s cool air
I stare at the sun
I look towards the big sky
In the morning’s cool air.
 
In the morning, walking on a road
With someone else’s girl
In the morning’s cool air
Taking a walk with the girl.

Life is so sweet
At 4 in the morning
In the morning’s cool air
Without a dime in my pocket.

Niška Banja, topla voda
za mangupe ziva zgoda, 
Em ka lavlam, em kamavla,
and'o Niši ka mekav la. 
Mi Cigani meraklije,
ne mozemo bez rakije. 
Bez rakije, šljivovice,
i bez mlade Cigančice. 
Jedan, dva, tri, četir, pet, šest,
sedam, osam, devet, deset. 
Deset, devet, osam, sedam,
šest, pet, četir, tri, dva, jedan.
Deset, devet, osam, sedam,
šest, pet, četir, tri, dva, nula.
Duj, duj, duj, dešuduj
čumidav la chaj and'o muj.
Em ka lavla, em kamavla,
and'o Niši ka mekav la.

--------------
The Niš springs, hot water,
for rascals a real occasion.
I will get her, I will love her,
and in Niš I will leave her.
We Gypsies love a good time,
and can't live without brandy;
Without brandy, without plum brandy,
and without a young Gypsy girl.
One, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten.
Ten, nine, eight, seven,
six, five, four, three, two, one.
Ten, nine, eight, seven,
six, five, four, three, two, ZERO!
Two, two, two, twelve,
I'll kiss her on the face.
I will get her, and I will love her,
and in Niš I will leave her.

Nishka Banja (Serbia)

Hora Mar Domnesc (Ukraine Romania)

It was a quiet evening 
Only the wind was whistling
The council met in their usual hangout 
All of them-- bandits, thieves, hooligans
Chose who will be their authority.

Some broad took the floor
They called her Murka 
This chick was beaming with beauty
The thieves knew her, the thieves were proud of her 
She had the whole gang wrapped around her finger. 

Once we were out on the job 
We got an itch for a drink 
We popped in to a classy restaurant 
There she was, sitting with an MCID agent (Moscow Criminal Investigation Department)
Under her coat, she had a gun. 

We didn't want any trouble, 
so we decided to beat it, 
But Murka would pay for this! 
To one of the leather peacoat-ed agents, we said: 
"Listen, Yura! Murka's needs a beating." 

At the restaurant,
Yura drank himself into a stupor 
And led Murka into the alleyway 
And assigned another one of the leather peacoat-ed agents
To chase Murka down. 

"Well, hello, my Murka, 
Well, hello, dearest! 
Hello, my Murka and farewell... 
You screwed up our whole life
And for that, bitch, you get the bullet!" 

Sasha pulled out a knife 
Smiled a beastly smile 
His brown eyes sparkled
And he sank the knife right into Murka's heart
"My little Murka, you'll never get up again!" 

Why are you lying there, Murka, 
On the side of the road? 
The lid of the coffin above you 
You'll never stand again, never lift the whistle to your lips
And the nark is crying over you.

Lemon Bucket Orkestra is a guerilla-punk-balkan-folk-brass band massive like no other. Tracing their genesis back to the streets of Toronto, the original quartet of busking troubadours quickly amassed a battalion of like-minded musical souls and the full-blown, dozen plus strong Orkestra was born. The multi award winning ensemble has been heralded as a groundbreaking, genre-bending phenomenon by the Canadian and international media alike and over the past 8 years they have performed on streets and stages around the world, leaving a trail of new friends and dedicated fans in their wake.

 

Equal parts exhilarating precision and reckless abandon, LBO’s live shows are a truly immersive experience - ranging from the ecstatic to the cathartic, and they have exquisitely captured that energy on their new album If I Had The Strength. Released in November 2018, it includes guest appearances from famed soprano Measha Brueggergosman, Latino rapper Boogat, Choir! Choir! Choir! and more. Their new video for the song Freedom has also just been released. Directed by the band's own Michael Louis Johnson, it was shot following an all-night drive home from a gig. Without any sleep, the members donned their best suits and gowns, cracked open a bottle of tequila, and let the cameras roll. “We wanted to create something that presents more questions than it answers,” Johnson says. “A piece wherein the stakes are very high, but we don't know what's at stake."

 

The band is currently supporting their new releases with a 9 date Canadian tour, before heading south to New York City to premiere their two-time Dora award winning folk opera Counting Sheep in December. They will also be featured artists in the made for CBC TV movie Dreaming of a Jewish Christmas – a celebration of the most beloved Christmas songs set to air nationally on December 3rd. With a recent appearance on CBC Q, up coming tapings for The Strombo Show, and a March 2018 tour of New Zealand that includes performing at the WOMAD Festival there, it’s clear that LBO have no plans of slowing down. Expect to hear a lot more about them in the coming year, as the take their unique brand of music mayhem to audiences around the world.
