Текст песни Penny on the Train Track (Ben Kweller) с переводом

I’m just a penny on the train track

Waitin' for my judgement day

Come on baby girl let me see those legs

Before I get flattened away

I wait

Yeah, I wait

For something good, for something great

Stoppin' in somebody’s old home town

Gotta get that midnight meal

If you can’t get behind your own life

Get behind the driving wheel

And go, just go

Find a place that you don’t know

Ran into a friend just the other night

Got a badge, he’s a local cop

Haven’t seen that boy in over seven years

Since out of high school I dropped

I see, I see

All the things that I should be

Oh baby dance with me!

Even lucky man has a bad day

And pretty girl has a scar

After that train comes and takes me away

Pick up that guitar

And play, just play

Play that rock and roll for me

He’s in the yard just washin' his car

Thinkin' 'bout his pretty wife

Makin' lemonade with the kitchen aid

Makin' him a perfect life

And it’s grim, so dim

When you wish that you were just like him

I’m just a penny on the train track

Waitin' for my judgement day

Come on baby girl let me see those legs

Before I get flattened away

I wait, I wait

For something good, for something great

And I try, oh I try

I can’t stop, I don’t know why
