Текст песни: Simple Ben + перевод

Walkin' on a dusty road in the countryside of ease

I heard a song driftin' on the gently blowin' breeze

Sunshine through the Autumn, sweet snow to the Spri-ing

Corn by the water of an old mill stream, and you give me all, you give me all

A barrow pushed by a little man came rollin' from the west

He sang a song as he stepped along until we drew abreast

Well hello there my friend, I see you’re on the road here just like me

Why don’t we stop and rest a while and I’ll boil a pot of tea

Just give me sunshine through the Autumn, sweet snow to the Spri-ing

Corn by the water of an old mill stream, and you give me all, you give me all

He said his name was Simple Ben but not what I’d believe

Christened by the way he thought and not the way he lived

I’ve seen the best and worst that we have here on our earth

And finally decided on the things that I get worth

Just give me sunshine through the Autumn, sweet snow to the Spri-ing

Corn by the water of an old mill stream, and you give me all, you give me all

I asked if he had seen the great jets fly across the sky

He said he’d seen the smallest bird learnin' how to fly

Have you seen the bridges stretched across the bays

I’ve seen the smallest fish alive dyin' in the haze

Have you seen the massive buildin’s reached towards the sun

I’ve seen the fields of barronness from the work that man has done

What about the dams and weirs that feed the countryside

I’ve seen the brownness of the grass when the dams and weirs run —

Just give me sunshine through the Autumn, sweet snow to the Spri-ing

Corn by the water of an old mill stream, and you give me all, you give me all

What about the fertile lands where nothin' once would grow

I’ve seen the lands
