Текст песни Have You Seen My Son? (Benjamin Booker) с переводом

You told me that the world is full of sinners

And placed a bible at my feet

I could hardly understand you

Oh, I had just learned to chew my meat

I heard that you were calling on the Lord

Asking for answers, for some relief

I heard that you were calling out my name (my name!)

And that you cried for a whole week

Saying, «Have you seen my son?

He’s lost in the world somewhere

I pray for him every day

But I know he ain’t seen your ways

(Is he alright?)»

As I got older

It never got any better

I said I’m trying to find some truth in this world

I know there’s things that you won’t understand

We fought all the way from Florida

Down I-10 to New Orleans

I said God must love everyone

Even the ones the Church loves the least

They say that when a mother loves her child

She will do most anything

I know that I can never make it right

But it’s hard to hear you say it

Yeah, «Have you seen my son?

He’s lost in the world somewhere

I pray for him every day

But I know he ain’t seen your ways.»
