Текст песни Hey! Sandy (Harvey Andrews) с переводом

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, why were you the one?

All the years of growing up are wasted now and gone

Did you see them turn, did you feel the burn of the bullets as they flew?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

Well the sun was hot and the air was heavy as the marching men came by

And you ran to the door to watch them pass and you asked the soldiers «Why?»

And the sound of the steel and the blackboot’s heel was pounding in your head

And your freedom’s past, they have come at last with the blessings of the dead

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, why were you the one?

All the years of growing up are wasted now and gone

Did you see them turn, did you feel the burn of the bullets as they flew?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

In the college square they were standing there with the flag and with the drum

And the whispered word as the young ones stirred was «Now at last they’ve come»

And the air was still with the lonely thrill of now the hour is near

And the smell of sweat was better yet than the awful stench of fear

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, why were you the one?

All the years of growing up are wasted now and gone

Did you see them turn, did you feel the burn of the bullets as they flew?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

Through the air the shout as you all ran out was «Why are these things done?»

And you stood and you stared but no one cared for another campus bum

And your songs were dead and the hymns instead were to the burning pyre

And the words of youth, like love and truth, just ashes in the fire

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, why were you the one?

All the years of growing up are wasted now and gone

Did you see them turn, did you feel the burn of the bullets as they flew?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

Did you throw the stone at the men alone with their bayonets fixed for hire?

Did you doubt that they would, say no one could, did you scream when they

opened fire?

As the square ran red and your bloodstain spread and the darkness 'round you

grew

Through the fear and the pain did you call the name of the man you never knew?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, why were you the one?

All the years of growing up are wasted now and gone

Did you see them turn, did you feel the burn of the bullets as they flew?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

Did you see them turn, did you feel the burn of the bullets as they flew?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?

Hey Sandy, hey Sandy, just what did you do?
