Текст песни: Over The Border + перевод

A man smokes and a dog stretches

A woman works and a kid kvetches

I’m ridin' on a road that stretches

Over the border to America

Over the border to America

I got nothin' but lonesome time

A backyard and a religious shrine

There must be something better over there

Over the border to America

There’s a lot of versions of the honest truth

One for them and baby one for you

One for the rich one for the poverty stricken

One for the healthy and one for the sick and

One for the tortured and one for the slave

One they tell you when they put you in your grave

One for the businessman with someone else’s money

One for the beggar with nothing in his belly

We got one room to live in wife, child and man

Not much bigger than an ice cream van

Sometimes we walk a mile and stand and stare

Over the border to America

I stood and watched as the wall came down

Heard the freedom bell begin to sound

Watched the hammer as it hit the ground

Saw the sickle spinning round and round

Now don’t make us out to be peons or fools

We’re into Zeppelin and Paula Abdul

Now we’re all gonna live in that cultural mecca

Order everyone a triple decker

We’re gonna buy a thousand pair of nylons

Come and live on Staten Island

Oh Liberty let me walk in there

Where law and justice are always fair

There’s only one place to get your share

Over the border to America

Over the border to America
