Текст песни Better Way (Keb' Mo') с переводом

Yeah, Yeah

Ohhhhh

Let my people go

Ohhhhh

Let my people go

In the swamps of New Orleans

The rain came pouring down

… of the water

That the walls came crashing down

Now I know a survivor

But how the hell you justify

Leavin' a hundred thousand people in water that high

Just struggling for their lives

I know there’s got to be a better way

I know there’s got to be a better way

I know there’s got to be a better way

And we gotta find it

Gotta find it

Gotta find it

Mmmmm

Politicians are screaming

They say we gotta raise up a war

So many people are dyin'

And we ain’t even sure what for

Is it because he’s a muslim

Tell me is it democracy or is it the oath

It’s in the news every day one paycheck away

And the president’s on the golf course

I know there’s got to be a better way

I know there’s got to be a better way

I know there’s got to be a better way

And we gotta find it (We gotta stand together)

Gotta find it (Or we gon' fall apart)

Gotta find it (We gotta find it)

Mmmmm

Sweet butter crawdad

Delta bread hot pepper

Soul that’s been sold out

Lifestyle was taken before they found out what life was all about

He’s a genius with the lyrics

Started young sippin' syrup

And it hurts me to my soul

The way he drinks away the pain

The world’s gonna lose him

Another unsung hero

We gotta find it

We gotta find it

We gotta find it (We gotta find it)

We gotta find it (We gotta find it)

We gotta find it (Hey)

We gotta find it

See the children on TV

It’s become a sign of the times

Glorifying their bodies

Something just don’t feel right

Still we keep pretending

That boys and girls are men and women

We watch it and we call it entertainment

And everything’s okay, long as somebody’s gettin' paid

I know there’s got to be a better way

I know there’s got to be a better way

I know there’s got to be a better way

And we gotta find it

Gotta find it

Gotta find it

Mmmmm
