Текст песни A Married Man's Fool (Blind Willie McTell) с переводом

Friend Luther Brown, he was a deacon

Just as wise as he could be

He realized he could read the good book back

From Revelation on down to Genesee

You know last Sunday morning we was over at the church

My buddy wanted to take him a stand

He wanted to look out on that whole congregation

With his good book in his hand

He casts his eyes about

Then he looked over in the Amen Corner

The sisters began to shout — what’d he say?

He said, «A married man’s a fool to think that his wife

Would love nobody else but him»

She’ll stick by you, bubba, all your life

Although chances is mighty slim

Now you can read the good book, chapter 21

Every married woman bound to have a little fun

You read it on over chapter 22

Wife can be your boy friend’s wife and you there too

Now you read it on down, chapter 23

Two-time your bubba like she double-crossed me

Now read it on down, chapter 24

Shimmy the first time, you gonna wallow some more

You read it on over, 25th page

Women these days, brother, is hard to engage

Now read it kinda careful, chapter 26

Marry your wife and quit her, you gotta learn to get it fixed

Now chapter 27 read like this

Your wife get crooked give her a mouth full of fist

Now read it on over, chapter 28

Stand to work for paint back slide on your back gate

I believe I’ll close up this summit on chapter 29

Woman get tired of the same man all the time

A married man’s a fool to think that his wife

Would love nobody else but him, I mean

Would love nobody else but him
