Текст песни Dark Horse (Ladyfinger (NE)) с переводом

I used to run around, proud son of the summertime.

Thought to rule the night; a wild horse out to stud.

I’d watch the prairie burn red,

smoke risin' with the morning sunshine.

Where the native bones rest in the soil,

and their souls’ll fly low in the sky.

I think I’m lookin' for a road I ain’t never gonna find.

Why even try?

I’ve told a lie or two; broken ranks when I shoulda stood fast.

Dug my heels deep into the soil, and braced for the crash.

I played a’lot’a games, bitten more than I could chew.

But, I always shared most of the spoils with you.

Well, I should’a done right and told the truth,

but, you only would’a cried. Why even try?

Oh, I jumped ship, took a ride, bet the dark horse,

and I bought a round; told the guys I’m leavin town;

and put ‘em down.

I packed up, got stoned,

told the folks I’m headin' to the southern coast;

won’t be home for Christmas;

though I’m sorry to leave like this,

but there doesn’t seem to be too many options left.

I gotta run away now and make amends;

when I can think of someone but myself.

And you can tell Shari not to tell her friends,

because they don’t give a damn for me.

Ah, tell her she’s better off with a different kind of man,

than a dark horse like me.

Oh, if I’d a known back then that she was pregnant,

I woulda tried not to misbehave.

In spite of everything there’s you and I,

now a family on the way.

If she was here right now I’d kneel down,

and tell the baby inside I’m gonna try.

(Ooooh, oooh, etc.)
