Текст песни A413 Revisited (John Otway) с переводом

Gonna drift on down to the county town

The place where I was born

Gonna ask my childhood sweetheart

To tell me how I’ve done

I always used to worry a lot

About what I’d become

I guess it’s really only her

Who will know if I have won

There’s a reunion at the Grange County Secondary School

Where there’s a bunch of us

Thrown together at a formative age

We couldn’t pass our 11+

Strange lesson at the age of eleven

To find that life ain’t chance

And if at first you don’t succeed

You’ve already been a failure once

From Amersham, to Missenden, to Wendover, to the Vale of Aylesbury

That’s me, heading down the 413

From Amersham, to Missenden, to Wendover, to the Vale of Aylesbury

That’s me, heading down the 413

I’m gonna wander into the Bell Hotel

At the bottom of the market square

I’ll ask the girl behind the bar

If they still do bands in there

I’ll tell her I’ve written something new

Can I get my guitar

There might be someone who remembers me

From 1974

The Bucks Herald is the local paper

Serving the community

I’m gonna ask the editor

If they’ll do a piece on me

I can say that I’ve had some new photos done

And I’m sure I’ve got some archive stuff

I guess they will do something

If a hit gets high enough

From Amersham, to Missenden, to Wendover, to the Vale of Aylesbury

That’s me, heading down the 413

From Amersham, to Missenden, to Wendover, to the Vale of Aylesbury

That’s me, heading down the 413
