Mighty Like A Rose — текст песни (Van Morrison)

You have drowned
a thousand sorrows
all in one,
and mixed with mugs, (?)
and millionaires
you have done.

Ya` been and gone and done it
for a quid,
and just what you don`t know,
up there you got hid.

Lord, you`re only
fourteen summers
and God knows,
yeah, child,
you`re gettin` mighty
like a rose.

You got pulled (?)
for tryin` to straighten
up this town,
and looked bashful
bribin` old, bent
Barrister Brown.

Ya` know, their turnin` on
in the classroom
ain`t the point.
It`s when you`re missin` out
teacher teach ya` how to
roll a joint.

Lord, hey,
while you`re down there
lookin` up my nose,
yeah,
child you`re gettin` mighty
like a rose.

Next time they try to fire me,
ya` make the scene.
You`re gettin` sugar cubes
for breakfast.
Ya` know what I mean.

And the, the hazard old, (?)
the wind blows
through you` ears.
Ya` haven`t got enough
of those
what ya`
haven`t got for years.
Yeah, but never mind
steppin` on my toes.
Yeah, child,
you`re gettin` mighty
like a rose.

Yeah, hey, hey,
you`re mighty like a rose.
Uh-huh, aww, aww, aww, aww, aww, aww,
mmm-mm, mmm-mm, mmm-mm, mmm-mm...
