Текст песни Larimer Street (Utah Phillips) с переводом

Your bulldozers rolling through my part of town

The iron ball swings and knocks it all down

You knocked down my flophouse and knocked down my bars

Black-topped it over to park all your cars

And where will I go and where can I stay?

You knocked down the skid row and hauled it away

I’ll flag a fast rattler and ride it on down, boys

They’re running the bums out of town

Old Maxie the tailor is closing his doors

There ain’t nothing left in the secondhand stores

You knocked down my hock shop and the big Harbor Lights

The old Chinese cafe that was open all night

And where will I go and where can I stay?

You knocked down the skid row and hauled it away

I’ll flag a fast rattler and ride it on down, boys

They’re running the bums out of town

You ran out the hookers who worked on the street

But built a new club where the playboys can meet

My bookie joint closed when your cops made a raid

But you built a new hall for the stock market trade

And where will I go and where can I stay?

You knocked down the skid row and hauled it away

I’ll flag a fast rattler and ride it on down, boys

They’re running the bums out of town

These little storekeepers they don’t have a chance

With the big uptown bankers a-calling the dance

With their suit-and-tie restaurants that’s all owned by Greeks

And the counterfeit hippies and their plastic boutiques

And where will I go and where can I stay?

You knocked down the skid row and hauled it away

I’ll flag a fast rattler and ride it on down, boys

They’re running the bums out of town

Now I’m finding out there’s just one kind of war

It’s the one going on 'tween the rich and the poor

I guess that I don’t know a lot about class

But the upper and middle can all kiss my ass

And where will I go and where can I stay?

You knocked down the skid row and hauled it away

I’ll flag a fast rattler and ride it on down, boys

They’re running the bums out of town
