Текст песни: Sleepy-Town + перевод

I whisper beautiful secrets into

The drainpipes at night

For the old folks while they’re sleeping

Something to help them with their dreams

I climb the wall to the cemetery

Lay down on the grave of my father

I hear him asking me for forgiveness

So I close my eyes in prayer

And then a rainy-rainy-rain falls down

A cool rainy-rain upon my head

It makes the river overflow it’s banks

And wash my cares away to Sleepy-town

I pour whiskey in the honeycomb

It makes the bees all turn to angels

I watch 'em fly off into heaven

Disappear where I can’t follow

And I would write Jesus a letter

But I hear that he don’t speak English…

So instead I’ll just throw these cobblestones Until I ring that old church bell

Until the rainy-rainy-rain fall down

Cool rainy-rain upon my head

It makes the river overflow it’s banks

And wash my cares away to Sleepy-town

In Sleepy-town, you let the wild wind blow away your name

In Sleepy town, you let the healing rain just wash your pain away

I see a light on in the station

Yeah someone is waiting for a train

And I envy them their leaving

As I turn to head back home again

For soon the morning sun will rise

And this little town will open up its eyes.

And return from the land where I’ve never been

From a Sleepy-town, that’s free

From all that rainy-rainy-rain fall down

The cool rainy-rain upon my head

Make the river overflow it’s banks

And wash my cares away to Sleepy-town
