Текст песни Motel In Memphis (Old Crow Medicine Show) с переводом

Were you there when the man from Atlanta was

Murdered in Memphis?

Did you see him laying at the Lorraine Motel?

Did you hear them say that the CIA is witness

To the murder of a man at a motel in Memphis?

(Chorus)

Motel in Memphis

Motel in Memphis

Run and tell somebody

There’s blood on the riverside

Oh muddy water

Rollin' to Memphis

If you were there you’d swear

It was more then a man who died

Did you see Coretta she was sobbing on The corner in her black veil?

Did you see Mr. Crump in a white coat grin?

Did you walk downriver where the cottonwoods are swinging

With ghostly bodies of men?

(Chorus)

Were you there with Mahalia wailing at the funeral?

Did you watch them lower his casket in?

Did you tremble when you thought about the future

And cry out for a martyred man?

(Chorus)
