Carmelita — текст песни (cowboy junkies)





Down along the railroad track
I ran into my old friend Jack
He was dressed in his Sunday best
But his face was mad and his eyes was a daze
He said `I lost Marina
and the last place that I`d seen her
she was making off
with my best friend`
I took him to the water
I spent fifty dollars
On something that would take him to the moon
Well he must have gone to heaven
cuz just before I left him
I tried to wake him up
But he would not move
So come on Carmelita
You drunk too much
and I can see that
soon you`re gonna need a breath of air
We`ll dance across the wheatfields
There`s a place I know just east of here
It wouldn`t take too long to (____?)
We`ll sleep out on the ground
and in the morning when we wake up
we`ll leave town
And I picked my last tobacco leaf
Soaking wet up to my knees
out there before the sun has (arise?)
You can have a drink of water
but don`t you look at my daughter
or I`ll come down there and cut you with this knife
So come on Carmelita
You drunk too much
and I can see that
soon you`re gonna need a breath of air
We`ll dance across the wheatfields
There`s a place I know just east of here
It wouldn`t take too long to (____?)
We`ll sleep out on the ground
and in the morning when we wake up
we`ll leave town
There ain`t any flat man
but if you are a black man
they`ll put you on a plane
back from where you`re from
We`ll sleep out on the ground
and in the morning when we wake up
We`ll leave town
