Текст песни: Billy Ate My Pocket + перевод

Remember that day

We went down to the stables

And that horse next to Northener

Put his long nose out the door

He was looking at me

And Billy bit my pocket

Clean off my shirt

Billy ate my pocket

And we all laughed

We all laughed

And Billy just stood there

With my pocket in his mouth

And from the yellow cotton

A piece of paper tumbled down

To the ground- to the ground

You picked the piece of paper up

Blew away the hay

Opened it up and read the name inside

And a silence round the courtyard blew

And the sky turned a bitter blue

And our friends looked from me to you

And I could tell you already knew

And you looked me straight in the eye

I’ve lived a long life of lonely lies

And pain replaced your surprise

And in a voice full of salt and ice

You said «who's Jane? — who's Jane?»

And I rode alone to Hampshire

And in the lowlands fair

And I thought that I might see her

But no man can ride that far

No man can ride that far
