Virgil — текст песни (Paul Simon)

Virgil

Ive got a wife, four grown children

I cant afford their education

I been a prison guard for fourteen years

That aint exactly a vacation



Warden

Since hes been here hes followed every rule

Well I told you my position

The law says hes got the right to go to school,

We abide by the courts decision



Virgil

I got a winchester 243

I like that gun for deer

Upstate november when the air is free

Smells like hunting seasons here



Hes the one to keep your eyes on

Hes smart yeah and hes quiet

A troublemaker if I ever seen one

Next thing you know its attica

And we got a prison riot



There aint no way that punk gets his degree

And hides behind the constitution

No way in hell that smart ass spic goes free

Not while Im in this institution
