Across The Border — текст песни (Electric Light Orchestra)

ACROSS THE BORDER
I ve been workin` so hard, baby,
tryin` to get to you.
I`m gonna be there soon because
In the heat of the day many miles away
when the sun is beating down upon the main street
I`ll be waiting here at the station,
I gotta move down the line.
They`ll be dancin` and singin` and doin` their thing
and they`ll be rockin` and rollin` until the day is done.
You know I got to make the deadline.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.
If I don`t get to the border then I`ll write.
The Mardi Gras will be blowing strong
and the people dancing all across the city.
I`m leaving here tonight,
I gotta move down the line.
I`m gonna catch a ride on the nine-o-five,
I`m gonna ride the rail until we reach the morning,
maybe three or four hundred miles.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.
If I don`t get to the border then I`ll write.
When the wind is blowing softly
through the streets of a little town and the music`s playin
you`re waiting somewhere over the horizon.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.
If I don`t get to the border then I`ll write.
- Jeff Lynne
