Lucky Day — текст песни (Tom Waits)

The prettiest girl
In all the world
Is in a little Spanish town
But I left her for a Bonnie lass
And I told her
I`d see her around
But that Bonnie lass
And her heart of glass
Would not hold a candle


To bumming around
So don`t cry for me
For I`m going away
And I`ll be back some lucky day


Tell the boys back home
I`m doing just fine
I left my troubles and woe
So sing about me
For I can`t come home
I`ve many more miles to go


Why, there`s Miss Kelsey
You taught dance at our school
And old Johnny O`Toole
I`ll still beat you at pool
So don`t cry for me
For I`m going away
And I`ll be back some lucky day


Now when I was a boy
My daddy sat me on his knee
And he told me
He told me many things
And he said sone
There`s a lot of things in this world
You`re gonna have no use for
ANd when you get blue
And you`ve lost all your dreams
There`s nothin` like a campfire
And a can of beans


Why, there`s Miss Kelsey
She taught dance at our school
And old Johnny O`Toole
I`ll still beat you at pool
So don`t cry for me
For I`m going away
And I`ll be back some lucky day
