Текст песни The Carpenter's Way (Hal Ketchum) с переводом

I build houses and barns and a birdhouse or two

Studied my blue prints and plans

I like wood that don’t argue, nails that drive straight

Tools that don’t skin up my hands

I have followed my call from Texas to Maine

Bangin' out churches and chairs

Struttin' the snow and the sun and the rain

Bangin' out rafters and stairs

And I’m slow but I’m steady

I prize the work more than the pay

I’m rough and I’m ready

Livin' the carpenter’s way

Livin' the carpenter’s way

Tomorrow you’ll find me up on some roof

Watchin' the sun play the hill

Rye in my coffee, love in my heart

Doin' what carpenter’s will

I’m slow but I’m steady

I prize the work more than the pay

I’m rough and I’m ready

Living the carpenter’s way

Living the carpenter’s way

Living the carpenter’s way
