Текст песни Mandolin Holy Man (S. J. Tucker) с переводом

Nine old friends drove cross-country

On a mission of blessing and liberty

Geared up in the morning and left right there

To sing at the rally in Farragut Square

They can put up a fence and keep out the crowd

But you can’t fence in a wall of sound

So we headed downtown to serve it up loud

Got pretty wet but it didn’t bring us down

METRO into Washington

Gonna rock the national phallus down

Drumming at the White House in the rain

And we won’t let up until they let us in

Me and the mandolin holy man

Me and the mandolin holy man

Walking and walking and walking and walking

And walking and walking the long way round

To the giant chalice in the middle of town

Better believe our time’s well spent

Throwing holy water at the monument

Gonna drum all night, let em throw us in jail

Rockin the Lincoln memorial

Chorus: METRO into Washington…

The crowd was all smiles for the fireworks show

We were right there, letting rhythm go

With all the pictures people snapped

Prob’ly see ourselves tomorrow on the internet

Sometimes you do good that you’ll never see

Blasting out negativity

Of the overthrow that’ll surely come

Bring it all back to a goatskin drum

Chorus: METRO into Washington…

So it’s all the way home on the orange line

The whole band of gypsies and dr. sunshine

Victory 100 smiles at a time

And a story to tell for the rest of our lives

We did what we set out to do

Made a lot of people happy, too

That’s whatcha get when you lend a hand

To the likes of the mandolin holy man

This is land is your land, this land is my land

Me and the mandolin holy man

Chorus: METRO into Washington…

METRO’d into Washington

We rocked the national phallus down

Drummed at the White House in the rain

And we never let up, soaked to the skin

Maybe next year we’ll do it again!

Spinners and satyrs and kittens and drummers and ryan…

And me and the mandolin holy man

Me and the mandolin holy man

This land is your land, this land is my land

Me and the mandolin holy man
