Текст песни History Book Version (The Toasters) с переводом

Here I stand on the deck of my ship on the Spanish main

I’ve got a charter in my cabin, signed and sealed by the King of Spain

That his stardard be unfurled past the edge of the world

I dare not go back again

History will be kind and bear me in mind

Will you remember my name?

History book

History book

Let’s take a look

At my history book

South Devon pirates buccanneers on the Panama coast

With a cargo of potatoes and indian princes

But what they want the most

Is to fill that hold with spanish gold

And make proud their boast

That England will smile on their piracy while

They drink Elisabeth’s toast

History book

History book

Let’s take a look

At my history book

Everyday I used to skip to school

With my history book in my book bag lord

Everyday I used to skip to school

With my history book in my book bag…

What a crashin whata smashin whata magnin ona you fo mine

What a crashin whata smashin whata magnin ona you fo mine

Arab trades fly their weapons on the Africa shore

And hapless victums bound in chains on the galleon floor

That their blood may be spilled in the land of Brazil

And they’ll see their homes forlorn

History will be cruel as it uses this tool

To shame the new world more

History book

Ah History book

Let’s take a look

At my history book

My history book

My history book

My history book

My history book

My history book
