Текст песни Still a Southern Man (Will Hoge) с переводом

There’s a flag flyin' overhead and I used to think it meant one thing

But now I’ve grown up and seen the world and I know what it really means

I wanted it to be the symbol of a boy who wasn’t scared to take a stand

But now I know it’s just a hammer driving nails in the coffin of a long-dead

land

Oh, and I can’t take it anymore

But I’m still a southern man

I don’t want your Stars-and-Bars and your blood on my damn hands

I’m lookin' away now, Dixie, 'cause I’ve seen all I can stand

But I’m still a southern man

The line really ain’t that thin between heritage and hate

One’s sayin', «Yes ma’am» and «Thank you» and makin' sure you pull your own

weight

The other’s what happens when you try to hold down anybody that ain’t just like

you

You can call it what you want but it’s a goddamn shame

And I’m glad I finally see the truth

Oh, I can finally see the truth

But I’m still a southern man

I don’t want your Stars-and-Bars and your blood on my damn hands

I’m lookin' away now, Dixie, 'cause I’ve seen all I can stand

But I’m still a southern man

You say, «Where's your rebel pride, boy?»

Well sorry, Mister, it’s all gone

That flag ain’t never led to one thing good

Tear it down, I wanna tear it down

But I’m still a southern man

I’m lookin' away now, Dixie, 'cause I’ve seen all I can stand

But I’m still a southern man

But I’m still a southern man

But I’m still a southern man

I’m lookin' away now, Dixie, 'cause I’ve seen all I can stand

But I’m still a southern man

Oh, I’m still a southern man

Still a southern man
