Nanci Griffith - Trouble In The Fields

0
Текст
 
Baby I know that we've got trouble in the fields
When the bankers swarm like locust out there turning away our yield
The trains roll by our silos, silver in the rain
They leave our pockets full of nothing
But our dreams and the golden grain
 
Have you seen the folks in line downtown at the station
They're all buying their ticket out and talking the great depression
Our parents had their hard times fifty years ago
When they stood out in these empty fields in dust as deep as snow
 
[Chorus:]
And all this trouble in our fields
If this rain can fall, these wounds can heal
They'll never take our native soil
But if we sell that new John Deere
And then we'll work these crops with sweat and tears
You'll be the mule I'll be the plow
Come harvest time we'll work it out
There's still a lot of love, here in these troubled fields
 
There's a book up on the shelf about the dust bowl days
And there's a little bit of you and a little bit of me
In the photos on every page
Now our children live in the city and they rest upon our shoulders
They never want the rain to fall or the weather to get colder
 
[Chorus]
 
You'll be the mule I'll be the plow
Come harvest time we'll work it out
There's still a lot of love, here in these troubled fields
 
Перевод
 
Детка, я знаю, что у нас проблемы на полях
Когда банкиры роятся, как саранча, отбирая наш урожай
Поезда катятся мимо наших силосов, серебро под дождем
Они покидают наши карманы полны ничего
Но наши мечты и золотое зерно
 
Вы видели людей в очереди в центре города на вокзале
Они все раскупают билеты и говорят о великой депрессии
У наших родителей были тяжелые времена пятьдесят лет назад
Когда они стояли на этих пустых полях в пыли, глубокой, как снег
 
{Припев:}
И вся эта беда на наших полях
Если этот дождь может пролиться, эти раны могут зажить
Они никогда не заберут нашу родную землю
Но если мы продадим этот новый John Deere
И тогда мы будем обрабатывать эти посевы потом и слезами
Ты буду мулом, я буду плугом
Придет время сбора урожая, мы разберемся
Здесь, на этих беспокойных полях, еще много любви
 
На столе лежит книга. полка о днях пылесборника
И там немного тебя и немного меня
На фотографиях на каждой странице
Сейчас наши дети живут в городе и лежат на наших плечах
Они никогда не хотят, чтобы пошел дождь или погода стала холоднее
 
{Припев}
 
Ты будешь мулом, я буду плугом
Придет время сбора урожая, мы будем работать это выходит
Здесь, на этих беспокойных полях, еще много любви
