Текст песни Shit Creek (Old Crow Medicine Show) с переводом

She said take your trouble to the river

Let the muddy water wash it away

If the truth don’t float back up to the top

You can bid our love good day

So I took to the edge, I dove on in

The current went and stole me away

Rocks and gravel, I ain’t got a paddle

To dig my dying grave

See a trail of tears come trickling down

Where the water’s got a bitter taste

My heart is heavy and my boots ain’t steady

And the waves keep slapping my face

I can hear her voice in the howling rain

Saying it’s sink or swim

But the deed’s all done, I’m going down

And I won’t be back again

God damn this river

And its wandering ways

And the love we made

Was shallow indeed

I’m sinking like a ship

I’m a runaway devil

And I ain’t got a paddle

Going up sh*t creek

There’s a bend up ahead by the dead bulrushes

Where the cottonmouth coil and play

I’ve been floating by levies and rusted out Chevys

For now on fifteen days

In the fog, in the moon, in the Mississippi mud

Everywhere I see her face

But I’m only a pebble in the belly of the devil

In a godforsaken place

God damn this river

And its wandering ways

And the love we made

Was shallow indeed

I’m sinking like a ship

I’m a runaway devil

And I ain’t got a paddle

Going up sh*t creek

Lie la lie la lie la…

So I reach for the reeds and the roots of the willows

That rise like a ghost from the bank

Hear the roar and the crash of every lost soul

That sprung a leak and sank

When my body is a bag of broken bones

With a farewell breath I call

God damn you lover there will never be another

And it’s over the waterfall

God damn this river

And its wicked ways

And the love we made

Was bittersweet

I’m sinking like a ship

I’m a runaway devil

And I ain’t got a paddle

I say God damn this river

And its wandering ways

And the love we made

Was shallow indeed

I’m sinking like a ship

I’m a runaway devil

And I ain’t got a paddle

Going up sh*t creek

Lie la lie la lie la…
