Текст песни Wonderful Wino (Jeff Simmons) с переводом

L.A. in the summer of '69

I went downtown and bought some wine

Wasted my head on three quarts of juice

And now the grapes won’t turn me loose

I’m a wino man

Don’t you know I am?

36, 24, hips about 30

I seen a fine lady and I start talkin' dirty

She looked at me and raised her thumb

And said: «Jam down the road, you funky-ass bum»

I’m a wino man

Don’t you know I am?

I, I went to the country

And while I was gone

A roller-headed lady

Caught me weedling on her lawn

I’m so ashamed, but I’m a wino man

I can’t help myself

HELP ME SOMEBODY!

My saxophone playing

And my wino career are in a slump

'Cause I find myself now living

In a cardboard refrigerator box down by the Houston dump

And I’m so ashamed

I’ve been drinkin' all night and my eyes are all in red

Crashed in the gutter and bugs in my head

Bugs in my clothes, been scratchin' like a dog

I can’t stand water, and I stink like a hog

Give me fi-i-ive bucks and a hot meal

Give me FIVE bucks and a hot meal

Oh, maybe an overcoat or two
