Текст песни: O' Be Joyful + перевод

O' be joyful!

Is that what you’re brewing?

Does your daddy know that’s what you’re doing?

His little girl’s got a reputation now for ruin

She was givin' them the country way

Machete in the tree stump, hound dog on the chain

Wooden-legged woman playin' a banjo in the rain

Can’t recall the tune, but the song’s always the same:

«Jesus, give me strength.»

But babe, it’s alright

I’m gonna wrap you up tonight

Carry you out right on time

Well she got Comanche, she got Iroquois

She got a young man that she plays with like a toy

He don’t mind when she call him «Little Boy»

That’s a thing that he enjoys

She wants to give it all back but it’s a little too late

He want to start all over, want a shiny clean slate

She’ll skin him like a snake, and hang him up over the gate

Don’t believe it?

Just you wait

But babe, it’s alright

I’m gonna wrap you up tonight

Carry you out right on time

Hey, alright

Ain’t it good to be alive?

Ain’t it nice to be fightin' on the winnin' side?

(Yea!)
