Текст песни Hangtown Ball (Railroad Earth) с переводом

My name is Abraham Bell

I came west in 49

I came for riches and gold

Here I met the end of the line

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, dancin to the banjo

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball

Listen to the wind tonight, you’ll hear me calling

Calling

My name is Tom Quinn

It was gamblin' did me in

The bullets went wild and loose

They put me in the Hangtown noose

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, dancin' to the banjo

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball

Listen to the wind tonight, you’ll hear me calling

Calling

My name is Jud McKee

Two other men and me

For murder and robbery

We went swingin' from the old oak tree

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, dancin' to the banjo

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball

Look up in the moon tonight, you’ll see me falling

Fallin'

Every day’s another day to send another on his way

The Devil’s running loose in old Hangtown

Every day’s another day to beg for mercy, kneel and pray

Before they string you up and drop you down

Rob each other, Kill each other

Father Brother Sister Mother

The Devil’s running loose in old Hangtown

Everyday’s another day to beg for mercy, kneel and pray

Before they string you up and drop you down

My name is Gideon Black

I came to get my life back

But my life here came to no good

It ended in the hangman’s hood

Here lies old Jack Snow

A meal for the for the peckin crow

My name is Elias Cole

I was tried by a drunken mob

For a shooting in the Jackal Saloon

I went swinging by the light of the moon

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, dancin' to the banjo

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball

Look up in the moon tonight

You’ll see me falling, fallin'

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, dancin' to the banjo

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball. gettin full of liquor

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, swingin with the ladies

You’ll hear me calling, Calling

My name is Abraham Bell

I came west in 49

I came here full of hope

I ended in the hangman’s rope

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, dancin' to the banjo

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball. gettin full of liquor

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball, swingin with the ladies

Have yourselves a Hangtown ball
