Текст песни: Savannah + перевод

Well the fire started something fierce in the belly of her head

Drought and plague made it worse and pushed her to the edge

But another hundred fifty years she was green as Dublin’s soul

Building riverboats and cobbled streets, pushing ghosts and burning coal

Sweet Savannah can you hear me under Spanish moss and smoke

Years of sweat and pain and torture below your haunted oaks

She’s seen years of men go crazy over ever-quenching thirst

Greed and guilt and cotton scorching the earth

But Sherman left her standing keeping secrets locked away

The dead lay quiet in their graves under children fast at play

Sweet Savannah can you hear me under Spanish moss and smoke

Years of sweat and pain and torture below your haunted oaks

Waitin on the Train —

Sirmans

You wither and lie in bed all day

Feeling sorry for yourself and the things people say

So I’m reminding you there’s light around the bend

Put your tears away, your sorrow to bed

You got a trumped sense of reality

I’m calling your bluff and your sanity

Walking my street like your shit don’t stink

You’re waiting for a handout, begging for my change

Thinking you’re stuck like a ship in a bottle

It’s time to settle up and pull that throttle

There’s a whole world waiting out there for you

Take a deep breath and put on your boots

I’m coming round and coming for you

You’re all wrapped up in your dirty little blues

Living your life like you’re waiting on the train

Like everyone owes you and always someone to blame

Taking for granted every little tiny thing

One day you’ll here them sweet songbirds sing
