Текст песни: South Texas Girl + перевод

Saint Mother Maria watch over us please

As we wonder around in this dangerous world

Thank Mother Maria there’s nothing so sweet

As the undying love of a South Texas girl

Three in the front seat they sat on each side

That green-and-white 58 Fairlane it would glide

Down farm roads past open fields seeming like no big deal

As it was happening I never felt a thing

But now looking back it seems like it was everything

Singing with mom just so we could hear ourselves sing

Stealing a drink from the cold can in daddy’s lap

Protected by only a small thin brown paper sack

And the wind blew the echoes of long-faded voices

And they’d sing me a song that the old cowboys sang

And I didn’t know what the words meant or anything

I was just singing because I was supposed to Sing Mother Maria watch over us please

As we wonder around in this dangerous world

Thank Mother Maria there’s nothing so sweet

As the undying love of a South Texas girl

And with the windows wide open it felt hot to us anyway

Three bound together on a day just like any day

They told me and taught me and showed me and bought me Whatever I wanted from the corner U-tote-M

They say the name Corpus Christi means the body of Jesus

Pronounce it Refugio city folks they don’t know

It looks like Palacios but sounds like

Just listen the next time you’re watchin' Sid Lasher

And the wind blew the echoes of long-faded voices

And they would sing me a song that the old cowboys sang

And I didn’t know what the words meant or anything

I was just singing

Saint Mother Maria watch over us please

As we wonder around in this dangerous world

Thank Mother Maria there’s nothing so sweet

As the undying love of a South Texas girl

And I didn’t know what the words meant or anything

I was just singing

And these days with car seats and open container laws

Social correctness leaves no room for Santa Claus

Sitting right next to me she looks like that used to be Song that they sang for me And with the windows wide open it feels hot to us anyway

Two bound together on a day just like any day

The wind blows the echoes of long-faded voices

And they sing us a song that the old cowboys sang

And now that I know what the words mean and everything

I am still singing

Saint Mother Maria watch over us please

As we wonder around in this dangerous world

Thank Mother Maria there’s nothing so sweet

As the undying love of a South Texas girl

Saint Mother Maria watch over us please

As we stumble around in this dangerous world

Thank Mother Maria there’s nothing so sweet

As the undying love of a South Texas girl

As the undying love of a South Texas girl

Saint Mother Maria watch over us please

As we wonder around in this dangerous world

Thank Mother Maria there’s nothing so sweet

As the undying love of a South Texas girl

Saint Mother Maria watch over us please

As we wonder around in this dangerous world

Thank Mother Maria there’s nothing so sweet

As the undying love of a South Texas girl
