Copperline — текст песни (James Taylor)

Even the old folks never knew

Why they call it like they do

I was wondering since the age of two

Down on copperline

Copper head, copper beech

Copper kettles sitting side by each

Copper coil, cup ogeorgia peach

Down on copperline

Half a mile down to morgan creek

Leaning heavy on the end of the week

Hercules and a hog-nosed snake

Down on copperline

We were down on copperline



One summer night on the copperline

Slip away past supper time

Wood smoke and moonshine

Down on copperline

One time I saw my daddy dance

Watched him moving like a man in a trance

He brought it back from the war in france

Down onto copperline

Branch water and tomato wine

Creosote and turpentine

Sour mash and new moon shine

Down on copperline

Down on copperline



First kiss ever I took

Like a page from a romance book

The sky opened and the earth shook

Down on copperline

Down on copperline

Took a fall from a windy height

I only knew how to hold on tight

And pray for love enough to last all night

Down on copperline

Day breaks and the boys wakes up

And the dog barks and the birds sings

And the sap rises and the angels sigh, yeah



I tried to go back, as if I could

All spec house and plywood

Tore up and tore up good

Down on copperline

It doesnt come as a surprise to me

It doesnt touch my memory

Man Im lifting up and rising free

Down on over copperline

Half a mile down to morgan creek

Im only living for the end of the week

Hercules and a hog-nosed snake

Down on copperline, yeah

Take me down on copperline

Oh, down on copperline

Take me down on copperline
