Текст песни The Poor Boy Can't Dance (Barton Carroll) с переводом

Well i don’t know what to say,

to the prettiest bridesmaid

And it’s easy for some,

but you got stunned and dumb;

and you know how it is.

When a man gets down,

he want no love from a hole in the ground.

But I’m sick of the wait,

and I’m sick of the fear,

and it ends right here.

Things were bad for me,

I came across the sea,

never knowing just what I’d do.

I’ve got your old man doused at the public house

and he took me on his crew.

And so I worked my way,

showed up everyday,

and I was like a only son.

Oh I was a lonely one.

And you know I do,

whenever I see you,

I try to avert my eyes.

But you caught my gaze as the glasses raised,

and we toasted the groom and bride.

And though you’re in the sight of every man tonight

I keep saying it to myself:

«If the whiskey’s strong and the band plays on,

I can do no wrong».

So dance with me,

won’t you dance with me,

little Katie don’t you turn me down.

I’ve been in a rut,

but I could get the guts,

if i could make it through one more round.

And when the music stops,

a little Goldilocks,

in my heart ya can’t confide.

Hand in hand in the English countryside.

I had a girl back home,

she left me all alone,

said I was born with two left feet.

And that’s the truth of it,

you know I must admit,

I can barely walk down the street.

But if it takes one more to get me on the floor,

well let me see what I can do.

Oh to spend some time with you.

So dance with me,

won’t you dance with me,

little Katie don’t you turn me down.

I’ve been in a rut,

but I could get the guts,

if I could make it through one more round.

And when the music stops,

a little Goldilocks,

in my heart can’t confide.

Arm in arm in the English countryside.

And now we’re face to face,

with my hands around your waist.

And out here where we meet,

there’s no floor beneath my feet.

You never had your fun with an American,

but I can tell you that it’s alright.

Oh Katie you’re on my mind.

So dance with me,

won’t you dance with me,

little Katie don’t you turn me down.

I’ve been in a rut,

but I could get the guts,

if I could make it through one more round.

And when the music stops,

a little Goldilocks,

in my heart ya can’t confide.

Lay you down in the English countryside.

Lay you down in the English countryside.
