Junior — текст песни (John Mellencamp)

They call me Junior.
I live here on the street.
I earn two hundred dollars a week.
I`d like to say
Hey, thanks a lot.
I know I`m missin` something
But I don`t know what it is
That I don`t got.

I sit here watchin`
The people down below.
I try to imagine
The places they may go.
I don`t know.
I stay home a lot.
I know I`m missin` something
But I don`t know what it is
That I don`t got.

I see the world through the TV Guide,
What a safe place for me to run.
What a small little man I am.
I`m afraid of everything
From golden rules to airplanes.
What a small little man I am.

They call me Junior.
I`m caught up in this hell.
Sometimes I feel better
But I never do feel well.
Jesus must have one hell of a plan for me.
I know I`m missin` something
But I don`t know what it is
That I don`t got.

And if I have anything to say
About judgement day
There`ll be a crown in heaven
For those who live this way.
Anyway,
You know exactly who you are.

I see the world through the TV Guide,
What a safe place for me to run.
What a small little man I am.
I`m afraid of everything
From the golden rule to airplanes.
What a small little man I am.

They call me Junior.
I live here on the street.
I earn two hundred dollars a week.
I`d like to say
Hey man, thanks a lot
My name is Junior

(Chorus out)
