Текст песни: There Goes the Neighborhood + перевод

I had a place on a dirt road’s end

Back in the woods near the Broad River bend

I had a double-wide, back side of the family farm

Kinfolks lived on every side

We all got a lot when Granddaddy died

When he left this earth, he left this earth behind

'Til a man came around, he was looking to buy

Said he’d make us rich in the blink of an eye

So we scratched our heads and said, «How much are we talking about?»

There goes the neighborhood. There goes the neighborhood

There goes the neighborhood. Oh, there she blows

There goes the neighborhood

Now my driveway’s where the blacktop ends

Back in the middle of a cul-de-sac bend

I got a fairway view down to the fourteenth hole

The dues are expensive but the club is cool

We got a zero entry swimming pool

We got a guard at the gate and one hell of an HOA. Yeah

There goes the neighborhood. There goes the neighborhood

There goes the neighborhood. Oh, there she blows

There goes the neighborhood

Now I get a letter if my grass turns brown

If my shrubs are too tall, if a limb falls down

I get a letter if my dog runs out of the yard

Can’t park my boat in the driveway now

Without somebody ‘round here having a cow

I should’ve read a little closer before I put my name on the line

I’m hitting the road in a U-Haul truck

Ain’t it funny how stuff gets all messed up?

This used to be the country, but the country’s all a suburb now

And I’m outta here!

There goes the neighborhood. There goes the neighborhood

There goes the neighborhood. Oh, there she blows

There goes the neighborhood
