Текст песни Angola's Lament (Sam Riggs) с переводом

Angola ain’t no place to be

It’s for the lost who once were free

Fields of fear stretched far and wide

And razor wire goes to the sky

And I make my round to the fields all day

While the prisoners work their sins away

Shotgun perched upon my leg

On sixteen hands on a thorough bred

And they sing ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Devil holds the key

There ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

But to get down on your knees

Desperation in a troubled man

Spreads like poison in this land

I’ve seen it all from this saddle son

Yeah God rest you’re soul if you try to run

Oh now ash to ash and dust to dust

You’re here because yer dreams went bust

Just put that pick axe in the ground

Keep on moanin' that lonesome sound

There ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Devil holds the key

There ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

But to get down on your knees

When the cold wind blew through that old screen door

You didn’t hear their screams no more

Blood on the walls and across the floor

Lord, what did ya do

You drug ‘em down to that old oak tree

Dug a hole ‘neath the tire swing

Wiped a tear threw in the ring

And a sawed off shotgun too

And you let ‘em down in the cold hard ground

Side by side the way you found ‘em

Fallin' rain didn’t make a sound

And that’s when you knew

There ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Devil holds the key

There ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

Ain’t no way to mend a broken heart

But to get down on your knees
