Текст песни Brother Mine (Suzanne Vega) с переводом

Sonny boy, you need new sneakers

Better go into town and get then friday night

Come to think of it, kid, you need just about everything

But I think things are gonna be all right,

Yes, I think things are gonna be all right.

So you went and got yourself back into trouble

Went and got yourself into another fight

Come on here, let me see your eye, now it’s all black and swollen

But I think you’re gonna be all right

Yes, I think that you’re gonna be all right.

I don’t know why you’re such a troublemaker

You’d think that maybe by now you’d see the light

Getting yourself torn up, boy, and we don’t have that much money

But I think maybe things will be all right,

Yes, I think maybe things will be all right.

Now maybe I shouldn’t yell

'cause I know you’re just a kid

But I can’t always tell

What’s on your mind, half of the time, brother mine.

Now I know that you’re just my little brother

And I don’t expect you to get everything just right

But I think you ought to use a little more sense than what you’re using

And maybe then things would be all right,

Yes, and maybe then thing would be all right.

I know that I sit and I worry too much

Especially when you come home such a sight

But I guess what you’ve got to do, boy, you go ahead and do it And I sure hope thing will be all right,

Yes, I sure hope things will be all right.

Now you come back here, you scruffy little brother

Come on back here and let me kiss you goodnight

'cause I know if you were gone I’d miss the sound of laughter

And that’s gonna make everything all right,

Yes, that’s gonna make everything all right.

(may 12, 1974)
