If I Was Washington — текст песни (Townes Van Zandt)

By townes van zandt



If I was washington

Valleys would I forge for

If I was a fat man

Fun would I gorge for

If I was gingus

Gold would I horde for

Wish I had a dollar a day





If I was a gouger

Gouge would I wish for

If I was a fisherman

Fish would I fish for

If I was a french whore

Frenchies Id dish for

Wish I had a dollar a day





Turkeys are for flyin

Chickens are for eatin

Im all for fun

Funs forbidden

Forbiddens forgotten

And forgottens for gettin

I wish I had a dollar a day





Buzzards are for circling

Circles are for heroes

Heroes for floatin

Fiddles to nero

Fingers for countin

Numbers for zero

Wish I had a dollar a day





If I was washington

Valleys would I forge for

If I was a fat man

Fun would I gorge for

If I was gingus

Gold would I horde for

Wish I had a dollar a day





If I was washington

Id wear wood teeth

If I was a policeman

Id walk me a stone beat

If I was a singer

Id stop right now

I wish I had a dollar a day
