Child of Babylon — текст песни (Whitesnake)

When I heard the sound
of thunder
On the day that I was
born,
I was blinded by the
lighting
An` baptised in the
storm.
My father started crying
When he saw what he
had done,
But, my mother started
praying
Have mercy on my son,
He is a child of
Babylon.
I am a child of Babylon,
Lord have mercy on a
wayward son.
Nowhere to hide,
nowhere to run.
I am a child,
A child of Babylon.
When I`ve fooled
around so many times
When I`ve known it ain`t
been right,
But, I paint it all in
colours
When it really should be
black and white.
I sail my ship through
muddy waters,
Try to open every door,
When I saw the seven
wonders
It left me wanting more.
I am a child of Babylon,
Lord have mercy on a
wayward son.
Nowhere to hide, got
no place to run.
I am a child,
A child of Babylon.
On my day of
judgement
I know how it will be,
I`m prepared to meet
my maker
With no hope for
charity.
I`ll stand alone and pay
the price
For everything I`ve
done,
`Cos there ain`t guardian
angel
For a child of Babylon.
(Solo)
I am a child,
A child of Babylon.
I am a child of Babylon,
Lord have mercy on a
wayward son.
Nowhere to hide, got
no place to run.
I am a child,
A child of Babylon.
