Текст песни: How Can I Protect You + перевод

She got a compact mirror

Stole it off her mother

She got her daddy’s overnight traveling bag

Always been told «if you wanna leave home honey, you ain’t ever,

ever welcome back»

And now she’s down at the station, baby in her belly

Kickin' gentle momma chilled to the max

She got a one way ticket, goin’cross the border

For her hopes and all her dreams

Rollin down the train tracks, yeah

How can I protect you in this, crazy world?

It’s alright

Yeah

It’s alright

From two to nine you work for five-a-dime

Start the night with some thunderbird wine

Praise the lord for those neon lights that’a

Keep the city burnin' bright all night

Walkin' in the park in the midnight rain

Swear to yourself that ya gonna change

Ain’t gonna crash, ain’t gonna burn, ain’t gonna take no wrong turn

Feel so alone, so you telephone, ya

Call collect ain’t nobody home

You ain’t surprised though you wonder why your letters come back unopened

So you hit the strip with your freak flag high an'

Forget about the tears in your daddy’s eyes

Momma don’t worry if the waters rise

Don’t ever let my drink run dry till the sunshine

How can I protect you in this, crazy world?

It’s alright

Yeah

It’s alright

And when the talkin’s over

There’s nothing left I can do

How’m I ever gonna get through to you?

Let the angels be the navigators

The devil will get there on his own

Let the cherubin

Let the serafin

Keep you walkin' on the road back home, yeah

How can I protect you?

It’s alright

Yeah

It’s alright

How can I protect you in this, crazy world?

It’s alright

Yeah

It’s alright

How can I protect you in this, crazy world?

It’s alright

Yeah

It’s alright

It’s alright

Yeah

It’s alright
