Текст песни: Sporting Life + перевод

Well, I’m tired of runnin' around

Well, I wanna marry and, and settle down

This ole sportin' life

It is a mean life and it’s killin' me

I got a letter, got a letter from my home

All of my friends are, they are dead and gone

It’ll make you worry

It’ll make you wonder about days to come

My mother she used to talk to me

Young and foolish and I could not see

I have no mother

My sisters and brothers won’t talk to me

She used to fall on her knees and pray

These are the words, mother, she used to say

She would say, Brownie

Oh, Brownie, please change your ways

Now, I’m goin' to change my ways

I’m gettin' older each and every day

When I was young and foolish

I was easy, easy let astray

I’ve been gambler and a cheater too

But now its come my time to lose

This ole sportin' life

Has got the best hand, what can I do?

There ain’t but one thing that I think that I done wrong

I liv’d that sportin' life, my friend, most too long

I said, it’s no good

Please believe me, please leave it alone
