Nothin — текст песни (Townes Van Zandt)

By townes van zandt



Hey mama, when you leave

Dont leave a thing behind

I dont want nothin

I cant use nothin





Take care into the hall

And if you see my friends

Tell them Im fine

Not using nothin





Almost burned out my eyes

Threw my ears down to the floor

I didnt see nothin

I didnt hear nothin





I stood there like a block of stone

Knowin all I had to know

And nothin more

Man, thats nothin





As brothers our troubles are

Locked in each others arms

And you better pray

They never find you





Your back aint strong enough

For burdens doublefold

Theyd crush you down

Down into nothin





Being born is going blind

And buying down a thousand times

To echoes strung

On pure temptation





Sorrow and solitude

These are the precious things

And the only words

That are worth rememberin
