Текст песни The Outsider (Rodney Crowell) с переводом

You don’t have to be rich, I don’t have to be drunk in a ditch

You don’t have to be the top of your class, I don’t have to have huevos of brass

You don’t have to be cute, I don’t have to look good in a suit

You don’t have to have a dog in this race

I don’t have to have an egg on my face

The outsider is watching your back

The outsider cut me some slack

The outsider just a little off keel

The outsider is something you feel

I don’t have to be straight, you don’t have to be something I hate

I don’t have to be white as a ghost, you don’t have to be dumb as a post

I don’t have to be hip, you don’t have to start losing your grip

I don’t have to be right if you’re wrong

You don’t have to be weak if I’m strong

The outsider like a coat when you’re cold

The outsider like a friend when you’re old

The outsider a little devil may care

The outsider is just something that’s there

You don’t wanna be a saint, I don’t wanna be something I ain’t

First you get a little long in the tooth, next you try to find a fountain of

youth

It’s a pain in the butt, that’s the trouble when you’re stuck in a rut

We don’t have to find a permanent bliss, but we’ve gotta do better than this

The outsider like a stone you don’t throw

The outsider like a bomb you don’t blow

The outsider like a mountain don’t move

The outsider’s got nothing to prove
