Текст песни Blow You Away (Robert Earl Keen) с переводом

You take off from work a bit early

The boss doesn’t care if you stay

The guard with the key

Has to check your ID

But he’d just as soon blow you away

The cops have stopped ten miles of traffic

They’re sorry for all the delay

No need for alarm

As they’re waving their arms

But they’d just as soon blow you away

Two pretty blondes in a Porsche

Their bumper says «We Love LA!»

They look pretty fair

But they’re crazy out there

They’d just as soon blow you away

You got in some trouble in high school

But you feel like a new man today

You keep to yourself

Because anyone else

Would just as soon blow you away

You’re standin' in front of the teller

She’s counting out all of your pay

There’re twenties and ones

And there’s guards with their guns

And they’d just as soon blow you away

And one old ex-con at the station

Fixes flats in the back of the bay

He winks and he jokes

And he borrows a smoke

But he’d just as soon blow you away

You like the new girl at the hotel

She drops your room key in the tray

No words will pass

Through the bullet-proof glass

'Cause she’d just as soon blow you away

You climb up the stairs every evening

To your room right above the café

There ain’t much mystique

But you pay every week

'Cause they’d just as soon blow you away

And you turn out the light that you read by

You pray that you’re one of the few

When you’re in with the Lord

There’s just one reward

And they’d just as soon make it come true

Your mattress is mildewed and lumpy

But you fall fast asleep where you lay

Under the lump

There’s a twenty-gauge pump

'Cause they’d just as soon blow you away
