Текст песни Born in the Bottoms (Sam Hopkins) с переводом

Yeah you know I was born in the bottoms

Down by the Devil’s Den

Yeah I was born in the bottoms

Down by the Devil’s Den

Yes you know I ain’t seen my home

Whoah yes since the Good Lord knows when

You know my Papa was a preacher

Poor Mama she was sanctified

My Daddy was a preacher

Poor Mama she was sanctified

But some time I wish I’d a been born dead

Daddy said son it’s a shame you were born alive

I used to run the world over

I’d run the world so that my Daddy was mad

And Mama she was too

But I stopped running when I settled down for a

Greedy little girl I’d come to church with too

My Daddy wanted to kill me one day and Mama told me:

Son you better run, you better run

You better run if you ain’t got your gun

You better run, you better run, son

You better run, if you ain’t got your gun

I said Mama don’t you worry I take care of myself

'Cause I wasn’t born to run

All right. .

One more word Mama told me:

You better try to make it before the sun rises in the morning

I said Mama I’ll make it if I can

You better try to make it before the sun rise in the morning

Mama I’ll try to make it now if I can

But if my Daddy should catch me with that

Old shotgun I’m gonna let him know

I done forgot about how he had been my friend
