Текст песни Red Checkered Tablecloth (Walter Brennan) с переводом

Well, another busy night’s come to an end

I think I’ll just rest my weary bones and set here with my friend

Folks may say I’m a crazy old coot, well, I recon I could be

But this old red checkered tablecloth means an awful lot to me.

You see I wait the tables, I’m here most every night

I see young folks a-kissin' an' I sure do see 'em fight

And that old checkered tablecloth in the corner over there

Well, it’s my friend, we both of a secret that we share.

Dreams belong to every man and mine just might come true

That’s why this old checkered table cloth is, is always set for two

I know I’m just a waiter but it weren’t always so

I used to bring my true love here some twenty years ago.

And right across the table while we’d be holding hands

My friend the checkered table cloth would listen to our plans

Every single night I’d bring her to this place

I can’t forget her laughter and I just can’t forget her face.

Now I sit here with my friend an' I rest my weary bones

My love walked out that door one night an' left me here alone

That’s why I never left this place and I’ll tell you somethin' more

Some day I’m gonna see my love aome a-walking through that door.

Now after ten we’re sitting here just like we used to do

This old red checkered table cloth is always set for two…
