Текст песни Goin' Down To The Levee (Take 1) (Monette Moore) с переводом

«One-Man» Nan, a gal from Alabam'

She never loved but «Good Man» Sam

«Good Man» Sam slipped off the levee one day

Fell into the river then he faded away

When «One-Man» Nan heard the news

She started down the road and sang this weary tune

I’m going down to the levee

Where the water’s heavy

I’m going to find my «Good Man» Sam

I made a vow when I got him

That I’d never drop him

When he was in a jam

Now, the thought of Sam sinking

Honey, that’s my cup

It’s going to be my place to lift him up

I’m going down to the levee

Where the water’s heavy

I’m going to find my «Good Man» Sam

«One-Man» Nan, levee bound

Feet flip-flopping on the ground

Ripped out trees, roots and all

Just like a cannonball

She outran her shadow

Left it far behind

Started running sideways

Just to keep from flying

Half a mile, 'round about

Heard old Nan a-shout

I’m going down to the levee

Where the water’s heavy

I’m going to find my «Good Man» Sam

I made a vow when I got him

That I’d never drop him

When he was in a jam

Now you can tell all the gals, for «One-Man» Nan

A good woman’s place is with her man

I’m going down to the levee

Where the water’s heavy

I’m going to find my «Good Man» Sam
