Текст песни: Sally + перевод

Sally

You opened out your arms

To all those young men

And girl you had room

For every one of them

You’re the only girl on Bowery and Third

Sure as hell you’re the only one who cared

So put your hands together for Sally

She saved all those young men

Put your hands together for Sally

She’s the one who cared for them

She’s doing our dirty work

She’s the only one who cares

Doing our dirty work

Thirsty world one angry day, in New York

Take a look at Dave, he was once seventeen

Zoot suit and shiny shoes

He ran around town and through his methylated laughter

Most of his memories drowned

But he remembers what his mommy used to shout

She used to shout

«One day surely, son

The streets are gonna tire you out»

So put your hands together for Sally

She’s the one who cared for him

Put your hands together for Sally

She was there when his luck was running thin

She’s doing our dirty work

She’s the only one who cares

Doing our dirty work

Thirsty world, one angry day, in New York

Tommy had a wife and family

But the needle came between the love and the hard times

Thank God for Sally

She was there through the misery

Just a place to lay his head

Just about better off than dead

She’s doing our dirty work

She’s the only one who cares

Doing our dirty work

Thirsty world, one angry dame

Vince came up from the country

Couldn’t even find himself a room

Thinking about his babies

That’s further away than the moon

With no money but his pride in his pocket

There’s really no way he can go home

There’s a picture of his woman in his locket

Most of all he doesn’t want to be alone

So put your hands together for Sally

She’s the one who cared for him

Put your hands together for Sally

She was there when his luck was running thin

She’s doing our dirty work

She’s the only one who cares

Doing our dirty work

Thirsty world, one angry day, in New York
