Текст песни Don't Go Into That Barn (Tom Waits) с переводом

Don’t go into that barn, yeah

I said, don’t go into that barn, yeah

Black cellophane sky at midnight

A big blue moon with three gold rings

I called Champion to the window

I pointed up above the trees

That’s when I heard my name in a scream

Coming from the woods out there

I let my dog off of the chain

I locked my door real good with a chair

Don’t go into that barn, yeah

I said, don’t go into that barn, yeah

Everett Lee broke loose again

It’s worse than the time before

Cause he’s high on potato and tulip wine

Fermented in the muddy rain of course

A drunken wail, a drunken train

Blew through the birdless trees

Oh, you’re alone alright, you’re alone alright

How did I know? How did I know?

Don’t go into that barn, yeah

I said, don’t go into that barn, yeah

An old black tree is scratching up the sky

With boney claw like fingers

A rusty black rake digging up the turnips

Of a muddy cold grey sky

Shiny tooth talons coiled for grabbing

A stranger happening by And the day went home early and the sun sank down

Into The muck of a deep dead sky

Don’t go into that barn, yeah

I said, don’t go into that barn, yeah

Back since Saginaw Calinda was born

It’s been cotton and soybeans, tobacco and corn

Behind the porticoed house of a long dead farm

They found the falling down timbers of a spooky old barn

Out there like a slave ship upside down

Wrecked beneath the waves of grain

When the river is low they find old bones

And when they plough they always dig up chains

Don’t go into that barn, yeah, hey

I said, don’t go into that barn, yeah

Did you bury your fire?

Yes sir

Did you cover your tracks?

Yes sir

Did you bring your knife?

Yes sir

Did they see your face?

No sir

Did the moon see you?

No sir

Did you go across the river?

Yes sir

Did you fix your rake?

Yes sir

Did you stay down wind?

Yes sir

Did you hide your gun?

Yes sir

Did you smuggle your rum?

Yes sir

I said, how’d I know?

How’d I know? How’d I know?

Don’t go into that barn, yeah

I said, don’t go into that barn, yeah

Don’t forget that I warned you

I said, don’t go into that barn, yeah

Don’t go into that barn, yeah

I said, don’t go into that barn, yeah

No shirt, no coat

Put me on a flat boat

Dover down to Covington

Covington to Louisville

Louisville to Henderson

Henderson to Smithland

Smithland to Memphis

Memphis down to Vicksburg

Vicksburg to Natchez

Going down to Natchez

Put me on a flat boat

Dover down to Covington

Covington to Louisville

Lousiville to Henderson

Henderson to Smithland

Smithland to Memphis

Memphis down to Vicksburg

Vicksburg to Natchez
