Текст песни This Is the Hebrides (Mull Historical Society) с переводом

They found the killer, she preyed on the weak

America’s pulling, the headlines out of me

I’ve walked the pillars, of the Hebrides

Profit poets in the Land of the Free

Of course I am open, of course I am free

Of course I am wondering what’s happening to me

Of course I am open, of course I am free

Of course I am saying:

This is the Hebrides

I joined the sinners down in New Orleans

America’s pockets are full of broken dreams

I went back to the Highlands, where they say Hope has a cure

Bibles are bashing the clients to their whores

Of course I am open, of course I am free

Of course I am wondering what’s happening to me

Of course I am open, of course I am free

Of course I am saying:

This is the Hebrides

I’ve crawled along the floor

From Miami to the Falls

Louisiana didn’t know

What Alabama should have told about the war along the way

And I, I still loved

Arthur Millar, Alasdair Gray

Things are busy not happening to me

Michael Marra, Johnny Cash

I’ve stepped from the islands

To plagiarise the past

Of course I am open, of course I am free

Of course I am wondering what’s happening to me

Of course I am open, of course I am free

Of course I am saying:

This is the Hebrides

The things that I want, the things that I need

The things that are busy not happening to me

Europe is falling and I’d strike for anything

Millipedes racing down America’s skin
