Текст песни Didn't I Know You When (Loggins & Messina) с переводом

You there, on the corner, you’re making the sick survive

You look a lot like lad I knew when I was a child of five

And now I see you’re leading me and the people to a heavenly end

But I don’t forget a friend, didn’t I know you when?

Didn’t I know you when you were

Pellin' papers, door to door

Didn’t I know you when you were a neighbor?

Well, Jack, jump back

You may look different, but it’s a fact

That I don’t forget a friend, didn’t I know you when?

And you there, his disciple, you’re passin' the hat around

You’re braggin' about the life you lived, while you’re braggin' about the life

you found

You may have been livin' in sin, runnin' from the arms of the law

But you may have been my friend, didn’t I know you when?

Didn’t I know you when you were

Waitin' tables, sweepin' the floor

Didn’t I know you when you were a neighbor?

Well, Jack, jump back

You may look different, but it’s a fact

That I don’t forget a friend, didn’t I know you when?

Seems to me you used to love the ladies

Playin' Louie, Louie in the band

But isn’t life strange, Lord how some people change

Sanctify me, Lord baptize me, tell me what’s your name

Didn’t I know you when you were

Waitin' tables, sweepin' the floor

Didn’t I know you when you was a neighbor?

Well, Jack, jump back

You may look different, but it’s a fact

That I don’t forget a friend, didn’t I know you when?

Didn’t I know you when you were

Pellin' papers, door to door

Didn’t I know you when you were a neighbor?

Well, Jack, shucks

You may look different, but it’s a fact

That I don’t forget a friend, didn’t I know you when?
