Текст песни: Butterfly Woman + перевод

Butterfly woman, only talk is cheap

So I’ll show you how to walk and I’ll give you the beat

Butterfly woman took me by the hand

She said first you’re gonna have to learn to stand

Learn to stand, mmm

Butterfly woman said listen to me

I’ll give you everything you need to live free

Butterfly woman said here is the truth

What don’t make you still will help you move

Help you move, will help you move

And then she said hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh

So many people here just talk the talk

Try to know when to love and know when to walk

Coming here you know I’ve seen it all

What don’t make you strong will make you fall

Will make you fall, will make you fall

In this life I am the one that chose

The only way to change is by growing old

What I am to you may look weak

I’m as strong as the ground on which I sleep

On which I sleep, on which I sleep, oh oh oh

And then she said hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh (oh, oh, oh)

Long ago before my hair turned gray

And my spine was bowed from the weight of days

Both my hips widened to bear the load

I thought that I could never grow old

But love has given me more, it seems

Than riches and worries that train and breed

And though my youth has wandered far and wide

These skinny old legs still don’t break stride

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya

Hey ya, oh, hey ya, hey ya, oh oh oh oh oh

Oh, oh, oh oh…
