Текст песни: The Steam Train + перевод

Submitted for your approval:

The future of basketball

The man with the muscle

And the man with the moves

Submitted for your approval:

The man who’s too fast to fall

The man who can hustle

And the man who can fly

Who always is hot

When it’s time for the shot

Listen

Any time you want me at all

Any rhyme or reason-

Brother, I’m the brother you call to play

Spring or summer, winter or fall

Any time or season-

Catch the boy who’s movin' the ball away —

He’s called the

Steam Train, comin' down the track

Better watch your step, better watch your back

'Cause you’ll see a shadow, fast and black

Then the Steam Train’s rollin' by

Steam Train, chuggin' down the hill

If you don’t move now, then you never will

He’s on your tail and he’s in for the kill

Then the Steam Train’s rollin' by…

He’s better than Magic Johnson!

The man is all talk, no action!

I love how he holds the ball!

My subjects arrive!

The Train’s got the talent

But without the technique

Toot, toot, here comes the Ssss…

Steam Train…

I’m takin' on Michael Jordan!

Got nothin' on Michael Jordan!

He’s ridin' it for a fall!

Gonna score it!

Lord, I’m fallin' for the Steam Train

Yeah, yeah, yeah…

The Train’s gonna make it

To the top of the sky!

Any team’ll

Pass him right by

Prepare for attack

When the Train’s on the track!

Listen

I have got my hands on the wheel

Someone’s got to lead us

Takin' on the Train’s gonna seal your fate!

Watch me as I line up a deal

With Nike and Adidas

All the world is starting

To feel the weight of the

Steam Train, comin' down the track!

Better watch your step, better watch your back!

Better keep your eyeballs open, Jack!

When the Steam Train’s rollin' by

Steam Train, chuggin' down the hill

If you want to live, baby, don’t stand still!

He’s on the move and he’s in for the kill

Then the Steam Train’s rollin' by…

You don’t know me. The last time I saw my father, I was five years old.

He hadn’t been home for two months. He came into the apartment at three o

clock in the morning, set fire to the drapes and carpets and then woke up me

and my sister, carried us outside and walked away while we watched the building

burn down.​

You don’t know me. But you will.​

A new world

Oo…

Just across the river

Oo…

Just across the river, there’s

A new world

Where I’ll have it all!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

A new world

Just around the corner-

Hear it call!

Hear it call!

Steam Train gotta run, gotta move, gotta blow

Gotta leave the Bronx behind him!

He knows all he’s needin'

To know to fly (he gonna fly!)

Steam Train, he got places to go-

No one ever find him!

Steam Train movin' on with the show-

Goodbye!

Goodbye!

Look out, here comes the

Steam Train, comin' down the track!

Better watch your step, better watch your back

'Cause you’ll see a shadow, fast and black

Then the Steam Train’s rollin' by…

Steam Train, chuggin' down the hill!

If you don’t move now, then you never will!

He’s on your tail and he’s in for the kill

Then the Steam Train’s rollin'

Steam Train’s rollin'

Steam Train’s rollin' by…

You don’t know me. There were twelve boys in my fifth grade class at Sojourner

Truth. Four of them are in jail, six of them are dead, and Gordon Connors works

at Twin Donut on 125th Street.​

You don’t know me…

But you will.​
