Текст песни Lookin' for a Happy Life (Elmer Gantry's Velvet Opera) с переводом

Another forgetful morning face has taken its place

The chair which stood beside the door is empty once more of joy

Little girls dressed in white

Made up to look right

But I keep looking round, round

The local population still encourages boys

… to know (his?) (pose in?) grace …

Looking for an easy (life? wife?)

A girl who’s on her own

But I keep looking round, round

Would you like to know where you’re going?

Would you like to know where you’re at?

Would you like to know what you’re doing?

If you could, would you look back?

Would you like to know where you’re going?

Would you like to know where you’re at?

Would you like to know what you’re doing?

If you could, would you look back?

I’ve grown a liking for this place (…)

Sugar tastes much sweeter than before

I’ve found the joy of love

Kindness in her face

(…) (no place?)

I need not look around

Would you like to know where you’re going?

Would you like to know where you’re at?

Would you like to know what you’re doing?

If you could, would you look back?

Would you like to know where you’re going?

Would you like to know where you’re at?

Would you like to know what you’re doing?

If you could, would you look back?
