Текст песни You Are Not Needed Now (Townes Van Zandt) с переводом

Well, the birds were talking all at once

and the old man mowing down his lawn

he didn’t look like much too bad a guy

And I was thinkin' Hang on, man, something’s wrong

your blues seems to be gone

heaven ain’t bad but you don’t get nothing done.

Lay down your head a while

you are not needed now

you are not needed now

Well, Allison laid a hex on me

and every time I turn around

it’s swimming through the air above my bed

I told Miss Higgs and she said fine

as long as you’re back in your room on time

I keep you clean and the girls will keep you fed

Lay down your head with mine

you are not needed now

and we got things to do

Between the blankets made of wool

the trains roll by every half an hour

and the body can get no restin' done, that’s true

so I do my best, as best I can

thinkin' big and making plans

and wondering where them trains are rolling to

Lay down your head poor boy

and feel how the ground does move

and hear how them drivers sing

Well, goodbye friends, it’s time to close

everybody knows that’s the way it goes

where was it you lived in case I’m ever there

Well, three doors down and two behind

and it gets a little bit out of hand sometimes

don’t let it fool you into thinkin' you down care

Lay down your head and fly

I’ll quietly pass you by

you won’t even see me go

If I thought about it long enough

I just might make some kind of move

watchful lies are too hard on the soul

With the smoke house just across the way

and it’s fog upon the light of day

that would be hard comin' up with where to go

Lay down your head poor boy

feel how the ground does move

hear how them drivers sing

What now, my darling one

go find a little fun

you are not needed now
