Текст песни Jacksonville (Sufjan Stevens) с переводом

I’m not afraid of the black man running

He’s got it right, he’s got a better life coming

I don’t care what the captain said

I fold it right at the top of my head

I lost my sight and the state packs in

I follow my heart and it leads me right to Jackson

Oh, Keller, oh, oh, oh

She gave us a medal, she gave us a map

Oh, Canner Row, oh, oh, oh

If seeing is right, then look where you’re at

I’m not afraid of Nichols Park

I ride the train and I ride it after dark

I’m not afraid to get it right

I turn around and I give it one more try

And I said things that I meant to say

The bandstand chairs and the Dewey Day parade

I go out to the golden age

The spirit is right and the spirit doesn’t change

Oh, Keller, oh, oh, oh

She gave us a mirror, she gave us a map

Oh, Canner Row, oh, oh, oh

If seeing is right, then look where you’re at

Andrew Jackson, all I’m asking

Show us the wheel and give us the wine

Raise the banner, Jackson hammer

Everyone goes to the capitol line

Colored preacher, nice to meet you!

The spirit is here and the spirit is fine!

Education, ask the nation

You gave us our sight and the hearing is fine

Andrew Jackson all I’m asking

Give us the wheel and give us the wine
