New Speedway Boogie — текст песни (Grateful Dead)

Please don`t dominate the rap, jack, if you`ve got nothing new to say.
If you please, don`t back up the track this train`s got to run today.
I spent a little time on the mountain, I spent a little time on the hill
I heard someone say "Better run away", others say "better
stand still".

Now I don`t know, but I been told it`s hard to run with the weight of gold,
Other hand I have heard it said, it`s just as hard with the weight of lead.

Who can deny, who can deny, it`s not just a change in style?
One step down and another begun and I wonder how many miles.
I spent a little time on the mountain, I spent a little time on the hill
Things went down we don`t understand, but I think in time we will.
Now, I don`t know but I was told in the heat of the sun a man died of cold.
Keep on coming or stand and wait, with the sun so dark and the
hour so late.
You can`t overlook the lack, jack, of any other highway to ride.
It`s got no signs or dividing lines and very few rule to guide.

I saw things getting out of hand, I guess they always will.
Now I don`t know but I been told
If the horse don`t pull you got to carry the load.
I don`t know whose back`s that strong, maybe find out before too long.

One way or another, one way or another,
One way or another, this darkness got to give.
