Текст песни Come And Sit By The River (The Country Gentlemen) с переводом

I could see that you’re ready to go home

There’s some TV shows that you’re missing

But you know how an old love loves to talk

And he needs someone who will listen

Come and sit by the river with me for a while

And I’ll tell you a story that’s true

Of when I was a boy playing here on the shore

And the grass was so green and the water so blue

Well our house stood right over there

Of course they took it down for the highway

I can see my moma’s tears, we’ve been there for twenty years

And you know we would still if I had my way

In those days you could often find me here

With the rest of the nieghborhood children

There was so much we could do, there was fishin' swimmin' too

There was always some raft that we were building

Many years I have watched this river flow

Rolling down from the hills to the ocean

I have seen the waters high, almost fierce and rushing by

I have seen in nearly dry and without motion

Now at last you can see what it has come to

Oh we prospered but poisoned the waters

Now the turnes have all been played and the piper must be paid

Not by us but our sons and daughters
