Текст песни Drive, She Said (Stan Ridgway) с переводом

Sittin' right behind me

I could smell her perfume

It was somethin' I’d smelled before

Went through a red light

While I spilled my drink

I could feel somethin' sticky on the floor

I said «Miss, you’ve gotta tell me

Where you wanna go to

I can’t keep drivin' round the same block»

So I crumpled my cup

And pulled the gum off my shoe

And then she told me «Just shut up

And keep your eyes on the road»

«And just drive,» she said

«Just drive,» she said

«Just drive,» she said

Well, I watched her put her hands

On the bag in her lap

While I scratched the bald spot on my head

I knew then that my cab was just

A getaway car

But I shut up and drove, like she said

I took a bite of my doughnut

And I offered her one

And I said «Lady, are you in a fix?»

Then she reached in her purse

And she pulled out a gun, and said

«Now just shut up, and keep your hands on the wheel»

«And just drive,» she said

«Just drive,» she said

«Just drive,» she said (Okay, okay!)

Then the moon disappeared, and it started to rain

So I put the wipers on full

And on the bag in her lap I saw the name of a big bank downtown

And I said, «You don’t have to worry about me, nope!»

When I turned the headlights on--just for a minute--

I thought I saw the both of us on some kinda tropical island someplace

Walkin' down a white sandy beach

Eatin' somethin'…

«And just drive,» she said

«Just drive,» she said

«Just drive,» she said

We pulled outta traffic

Down a dark side street

She was fixin' her hair in the mirror

I made a left turn

At a yellow light

Drove my cab fast towards the pier

She boarded the boat

And turned and blew me a kiss

And later on, when the squad car came 'round

I ate a handful of peanuts

And I told 'em this

«I don’t rememeber much, except 'Just keep your hands on the wheel'»

«And just drive,» she said

«Just drive,» she said

«Just drive,» she said

Hey, hey, uh--

Hey, y’all, get outta my way!--all ya sunday drivers!

Hey, you want one of these, ah, Slim Jims? They’re good!

What?--what? You don’t--you don’t want one?

Well they’re 100% meat!

Haven’t I seen you somewhere before?

I know, I know, Anchorage, that’s where I seen ya, Anchorage

Well, where you goin'?

I’m sorry, I don’t go in that part of town anymore

I don’t need my windows washed
