Cap in Hand — текст песни (The Proclaimers)





I could tell the meaning of a word like serene
I got some `O` Grades when I was sixteen
I can tell the difference between magarine and butter
I can say "Saskatchewan" without starting to stutter

But I can`t understand why we let someone else rule our land, cap in hand
I could get a broken jaw from being in a fight
I know its evening when day turns to night
I can understand why Stranraer lie so lowly
They could save a lot of points by signing Hibs Goalie

But I can`t understand why we let someone else rule our land, cap in hand

We fight - when they ask us
We boast - then we cower
We beg
For a piece of
Whats already ours

Once I thought I could make God a bribe
So I said I was in his lost tribe
Getting handouts can be so frustrating
"Get in line son, there`s five million waiting"

I can`t understand why you let someone else rule your land, cap in hand
I can`t understand why we let someone else rule our land, cap in hand
I can`t understand why you let someone else rule your land, cap in hand
