Текст песни Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis (Tom Waits) с переводом

Hey Charlie I’m pregnant

And living on the 9th Street

Right above a dirty bookstore

Off Euclid Avenue

And I stopped takin dope

And I quit drinkin whiskey

And my old man plays the trombone

And works out at the track

And he says that he loves me

Even though its not his baby

And he says that he’ll raise him up

Like he would his own son

And he gave me a ring

That was worn by his mother

And he takes me out dancin

Every Saturday night

And hey Charlie I think about you

Everytime I pass a fillin station

On account of all the grease

You used to wear in your hair

And I still have that record

Of Little Anthony & The Imperials

But someone stole my record player

Now how do you like that?

Hey Charlie I almost went crazy

After Mario got busted

So I went back to Omaha to

Live with my folks

But everyone I used to know

Was either dead or in prison

So I came back to Minneapolis

This time I think I’m gonna stay

Hey Charlie I think I’m happy

For the first time since my accident

And I wish I had all the money

That we used to spend on dope

I’d buy me a used car lot

And I wouldn’t sell any of em

I’d just drive a different car

Every day, dependin on how

I feel

Hey Charlie for Christsakes

Do you want to know the

Truth of it?

I don’t have a husband

He don’t play the trombone

And I need to borrow money

To pay this lawyer

And Charlie, hey

I’ll be eligible for parole

Come Valentine’s Day
