Текст песни Wheels Of Laredo (The Highwomen) с переводом

On a winter night in Webb County, Texas

On the north bank of the mighty Rio Grande

I was watching the jungle fires a-burnin'

Across the border of a not-so-distant land

And the echoes of the church bells that were swingin'

Could be heard from Guadalupe Market Square

There was a girl down there in the south side of the river

She had feathers tied into her long black hair

Said‚ if I was I was white-crowned sparrow

I would float upon the southern skies of blue

But I’m stuck inside the wheels of Laredo

Wishing I was rolling back to you

(Wish I was rolling)

I put on my favorite jacket for Jamboozie

I painted up my eyes and wore my beads

There was a band playing «To God Be the Glory»

There were people dancing all around the streets

There were barrels on the sidewalk that were burning

And a fortune-teller readin' people’s hands

And I swear I heard those church bells ringing

Across the border in a not-so-distant land

Singing‚ if I was white-crowned sparrow

I would float upon the southern skies of blue

But I’m stuck inside the wheels of Laredo

Wishing I was rolling back to you

(Back to you)

If I was white-crowned sparrow

I would float upon the southern skies of blue

But I’m stuck inside the wheels of Laredo

Wishing I was rolling back to you

Wishing I was rolling back to you
