It Was A Very Good Year — текст песни (Ray Charles)


When I was seventeen

It was a very good year

It was a very good year for small town girls

And soft summer nights

We`d hide from the lights

On the village green

When I was seventeen



When I was twenty-one

It was a very good year

It was a very good year for city girls

Who lived up the stair

With all that perfumed hair

And it came undone

When I was twenty-one



When I was thirty-five

It was a very good year

It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls

Of independent means

We`d ride in limousines

Their chauffeurs would drive

When I was thirty-five



But now the days grow short

I`m in the autumn of the year

And now I think of my life as vintage wine

From fine old kegs

From the brim to the dregs

And it poured sweet and clear

It was a very good year



It was a mess of good years
