Susan McCann - Papa's Wagon текст песни

Исполнитель: Susan McCann

альбом: The Blayney Years - The Susan McCann Collection Vol' 1


I can see us now ridin' in a brand-new Wagon
Happy as a king upon a throne
Papa wearing overalls and Mama with her bonnet
Ridin' in a brand-new Wagon going home
Today is the first day I've been home in many years
Remembering how things used to be, I can't hold back the tears
The house is barely standing, and the barn is rotted down
And someone's planted trees all over papa's farming ground
The weeds have almost hidden, Papa's Wagon standing there
I thought how long it's been since gentle hands touched it with care
I remember when we bought it, even mama went along
She walked and led the mules to town and proudly brought it home
Well, I can see us now ridin' in a brand-new Wagon
Happy as a king upon a throne
Papa wearing overalls and Mama with her bonnet
Ridin' in a brand-new Wagon going home
I remember Laurie Jones she lived the next house down
She went in the Wagon every time it went to town
When I told her of my plans she cried and said, "You're wrong"
But I just wouldn't listen, so I ran away from home
Too young to get a job, I robbed a van in Frisco yard
The Wagon that I rode next was driven by a guard
Mam and Papa kept my secret 'til their dying day
That's why no one could find me when they both had passed away
Well, I can see us now ridin' in a brand-new Wagon
Happy as a king upon a throne
Papa wearing overalls and Mama with her bonnet
Ridin' in a brand-new Wagon going home
I can see us now ridin' in a brand-new Wagon
Happy as a king upon a throne
Papa wearing overalls and Mama with her bonnet
Ridin' in a brand-new Wagon going home
