Текст песни Picture Show (John Prine) с переводом

A young man from a small town

With a very large imagination

Lay alone is his room with his radio on

Looking for another station

When the static from the Mouthpiece

Gave way to the sound below

James Dean went out to Hollywood

And put his picture is a picture show

And it’s Oh Daddy get off of your knees

Mama why’d you have to go

Your Darlin' Jim is out on a limb

I put my picture in a picture show

Put my picture in a picture show

Hamburgers Cheeseburger

Wilbur and Orville Wright

John Garfield is the afternoon

Montgomery Clift at night

When the static from the mouthpiece

Gave way to the sound below

James Dean went out to Hollywood

And put his picture in a picture show

A Mocca Man in a wigwam

Sitting on a reservation

With a big black hole

In the belly of his soul

Waiting on an explanation

While the white man

Sits on his fat can

And takes pictures of the Navajo

Every time he clicks

His Kodak pics

He steals a little bit of soul
