Текст песни: Brother, Oh Brother + перевод

Oh Brother, oh Brother, oh Brother of mine

I’m writin' you a letter, it’s been a long time

Tell Mama that I love her, tell her everything’s fine

Oh Brother, oh Brother, oh Brother of mine

My daddy lived by the gun and his daddy did too

Back when servin' your country wasn’t up to you

He said some were born to talk, boy, and some were born to shoot

My daddy lived by the gun and his daddy did too

So I got my daddy’s name stitched across my chest

And now I can drop a man from about two clicks

I wonder if he’s proud of me yet

I’ve got my daddy’s name stitched across my chest

Now my hands are tired and my feet are sore

And I’m sick of dodgin' bullets for another man’s war

I’ve lost all sight of what I’m fightin' for

My hands are tired and my feet are sore

'Cause I’ve been fightin' for an answer that’s long been lost

Did God walk through the desert or die on a cross?

These stars and stripes my albatross

I’ve been fightin' for an answer that’s long been lost

So I got my rifle steady and my aim is true

No matter what side I pledge allegiance to

I’m just doin the job I get paid to do

I got my rifle steady and my aim is true

Because my momma did her best to raise me well

She taught me 'bout heaven and she taught me 'bout hell

Now where I’ll end up, man it’s hard to tell

Momma did her best to raise me well

The war can bring out the worst in a man

When you country’s got your heart and the devil’s got your hand

It’ll make you do things you never had planned

War can bring out the worst in a man

Oh Brother, oh Brother, oh Brother of mine

If you’re reading this letter it’s the end of the line

I ran out of luck, I ran out of time

Oh Brother, oh Brother, oh Brother of mine
