Kishore Kumar Hits — Guy Davis - (I Love My Job) текст песни

Исполнитель: Guy Davis

альбом: Give In Kind

There once was a young man named Doug Ramsey
Doug lived in a place called Joppatowne
In his early life, he made some bad choices
And he had to go to prison
It was while he was in prison that he heard, that his mother died
And the warden decided that, he could have one day's furlough to go to her funeral
And on that day, he left the prison with chains on his wrists, chains on his ankles
Accompanied about two marshals
They drove him to a little church by the sea in Joppatowne
When they got there, they discovered that the doors were locked
The funeral was over, they had missed it
So they drove from there to the cemetery and when they got there
Doug looked down
The sky was gray, it just began to rain
And he recognized the faces, and figures of people who he knew and loved
And he looked down at the chains on his wrist, and suddenly he felt very ashamed
He didn't want those people to see him like that
So he asked the marshals if they would unlock the chains from his wrists
And unlock the chains from his ankles
He promised, he wouldn't run nowhere in the Bay
For they were gonna put his mother in the ground
But the marshals had their orders, so the chains stayed where they were
Doug got out of the car, he made his way over to his mother's graveside
And the old blind man, Joko Miller, picked up his guitar and began to play
