Текст песни: 1922 Blues + перевод

Well I worked all summer couldn’t save a cent

I gave all my money to the government

I don’t know quite how it got spent

but the banks are coming for my deed though

Man at the mill can’t see though

Let me get my feed for free though

Ain’t that the way it is

I cut out down a braver road

I traded my stock for a V84

Danced for town down on the floor boards

And the title owed down to me though

That gasoline ain’t free through

Just guzzling out my knee bone?

Ain’t that the way it is

Well i met me a woman down in saint paul

with a little money and a little pole

Bloke told me that he’d bust my jaw

I talked to his sister again though

Don’t mean I couldn’t win though

There’s blood running down my chin now

Ain’t that the way it is

Well I slept all night on the bar room floor

and woke up this morning my head was sore

Pockets empty but I want some more

The bar man’s got my car though

Tales worth more by far though

As I leave her down at the bar now

Ain’t that the way it is

Well I hitched me a ride on the way back home

I got me a job on a family farm

Times are hard here but I can’t roll?

and I ain’t got nothing more

Oh that company store

Gold’s looking good for sure though

Ain’t that the way it is

Well I worked all summer counldn’t save a cent

I gave all my money to the government

I don’t know quite how it got spent

but the banks are coming for my deed though

Man at the mill can’t see though

Let me get my feed for free though

Ain’t that the way it is
