Текст песни The Bells (The Stray Birds) с переводом

Rockabye baby Bethlehem stable

There’s a dog eared bible on the kitchen table

Of a Mississippi morning cotton plantation

And a Tarrytown underground railroad station

Abraham rises on a day decided

All six foot four in a house divided

And he cries cause he knows what the wind is bringing

Now the trees are down but the birds are singing

Muddy waters keep on rollin

And the bells are cracked

But they keep on tollin

Muddy waters keep on rollin

And the bells are cracked

But they keep on tollin

Bus pulls up, Montgomery station

She reads the law like an invitation

Now the oil is low but the lamp is burning

And the wheels are busted but they keep on turning

Break my bread, share my water

Take my hand and call me brother

The kingdom stands but the walls are leaning

At the edge of the water a king is dreaming
