Текст песни: If Not Me + перевод

He said: mama I know you have

A lot of plans for me

College in the fall

Hey I’m almost eighteen

I’ve been doing lots of thinking

About a lot of stuff

Went down to the recruiter today

And I signed up

If not there, then where

If not now, then when

If not this, then what else can I defend

Being gone and being scared

What else can I do

You are not me mama

If not me then who

He’s upstairs shaving

His cloth is starched and pressed

I’m down here praying, my mind is a mess

I ask where he got, these crazy ideas anyway

He just smiles and says:

It’s the way that I was raised

If not there, then where

If not now, then when

If not this, then what else can I defend

Being gone and being scared

What else can I do

If not me daddy

If not me then who

We wait for his letters, emails and satellite calls

Then the politics

Thats number 84 wide receiver for the Wildscats whos pictures is hangning in my

home next to the soldier standing proud and tall

He said

If not there, then where

If not now, then when

If not this, then what else can I defend

Being gone and being scared

What else can I do

If not me dear God

If not me then who
