Текст песни: Born in London Town + перевод

WELL I’VE SEEN A MILLION CARS GO BY ON THOUSANDS OF OUR STREETS

I’VE MISSED A MILLION PEOPLE’S EYES, THEY LOOK DOWN AT MY FEET

SANG WITH MILLIONAIRES AND BEGGARS, SANG IN EVERY SEASON’S WEATHERS

SO I KNOW THE SEASON’S FASHIONS, AND THEIR FASHION IS TO CHANGE

I’VE SEEN 14 BEDROOM HOUSES, I’VE SEEN BABES SHARE BEDS WITH SPOUSES

I’VE SEEN OPIUM AND COCAINE TAKEN LONG BEFORE MIDDAY

AND INSIDE THE CONCRETE WALLS BED THE BANKERS. BARDS AND WHORES

LIVING WORLDS APART, WITH INCHES IN BETWEEN

I WAS BORN IN LONDON TOWN

MADE MY MARK ON THE CONCRETE, MY NAME ON THE GROUND

AND I KNOW THESE OLD STREETS LIKE THE BACK OF MY HAND

BUT I’VE NEVER BEEN HERE BEFORE

WELL IN THESE STREETS I’VE LEARNT AND GROWN. BUT THESE STREETS ARE NOT MY OWN

FOR WHO COULD LAY A CLAIM TO THE ORGANS OF A BEAST?

AND ALL THESE PEOPLE I HAVE KNOWN. STILL LIVING LIFE ALONE

MY FEET POUNDING OUT THAT STEADY PATH TO PEACE

I WAS BORN…

IF THE TIME COMES TO BE FREE, IF I CAN’T FIND THE SPACE TO BREATHE

I’LL LET THE CITY SLIP BEHIND ME INTO GREY

GIVE UP THE PLACES THAT I LOVE, FOR SOME SUNNY SKY ABOVE

BUT WHEREVER MY FEET TAKE ME I CAN’T LEAVE…

I WAS BORN IN LONDON TOWN

MADE MY MARK ON THE CONCRETE. MY NAME ON THE GROUND

AND I WALK THESE OLD STREETS WITH NO ONE BY MY SIDE

STILL LOOKING FOR THE MAN I AM INSIDE
