Текст песни Plain American Girl (The Stone Coyotes) с переводом

One night as I lay sleeping

And everything was still

I dreamed I saddled up and rode away

To the top of Dead Man’s Hill

I could see from the horizon

To the stars in the Milky Way

I could hear a lone dog crying

And the turning of wheels on the highway

I’ll ride out tonight when the moon is high

Ride away from the world

And I’ll ride out down the Chisolm Trail

I’m a plain American girl

I looked to the east and I looked to the west

Far as the eye could see

I saw a man — he had a plow in his hand

And he said, «What will become of me?»

Indian maid, why do you stand so still

By the streams that used to flow

She said, «My Gods have told me secrets

You will never know.»

We ride out tonight when the moon is high

Ride away from the world

We ride out down the Mohawk Trail

I’m a plain American girl

These ghostly apparitions

They were so eerie and so strange

I saw the cowboys drive the cattle down

Shadows and dust on the range

And a soldier lay where his blood was shed

He said, «Don't weep for me

My men and I — we still ride

At the call of Reveille»

We ride out tonight when the moon is high

Ride away from the world

And we ride out through the waves of grain

Through the mountains and the valleys and the plains

The Mississippi River runs in my veins

I love the saddle and the feel of the reins

Because I am and I will always remain

A plain American girl
