Текст песни Harrisburg (Josh Ritter) с переводом

Romero got married on the fifth of July

In Our Lady of Immaculate Dawn

Could have got married in the revival man’s tent

But there ain’t no reviving what’s gone

They slipped like a shadow from the family he made

In a little white house by the woods

Dropped the kids at the mission with a rose for the virgin

She knew he was gone for good

It’s a long way to heaven, it’s closer to Harrisburg

And that’s still a long way from the place where we are

And if evil exists, it’s a pair of train tracks

And the devil is a railroad car

Could have stayed somewhere, but train tracks kept going

It seems like they always left soon

And the people he ran with, they moaned low and painful

Sang sad misereres to the moon

Rose at the altar, withered and wilted

Romero sank into a dream

He didn’t make heaven and he didn’t make Harrisburg

He died in a hole in between

Now some say that man is the root of all evil

Others say God’s a drunkard for pain

Yeah, me, I believe that the Garden of Eden

Was burned to make way for a train, for a train
