Текст песни Sheriff Ochs (Kind of Like Spitting) с переводом

I just finished a book with its cover torn and its pages worn

The story starts on the day you were born in the city

Where movie houses stood

Raised on Elvis and Hollywood

The bad guys bad and the good guys good

And the weight of the worlds is always on the sheriff’s

Shoulders

There was life in the little house

Above the hospital for the dying

So I will keep singing

I will keep finishing for some words in the water all around me

The house of home shook and as the shelter broke you got a

Good long look

At a country and class run by buzzards and crooks

Mississippi! Mississippi!

Through CIA and Klan

Through McCarthy’s damn blacklist, Nixon, and Nam

They tear-gassed the students but you had a plan

And the weight of the world is on the sheriff’s

Shoulders

There was life in the little house

Above the hospital for the dying

So I will keep singing

I will keep fishing for some words in this water all around me

There was life in the city that night

You found your voice and you voiced your sight

You held your ground to help us see

There’s more to life than lovers and chores

There’s more to life that an office at the top floor

Somehow, someway, we all find peace

We all find…
