Star Spandgled Bummer — текст песни (Kris Kristofferson)

Ring anvil for the deal

We dealt us by mistake

Our angel made of steel

Is big enough to break

Cause the rust is at his heel

And I swear I seen him shakin

But wholl be here to bring this body home



The cabaret was crowded

As her bed on payday night

Sammy hit a soldier

And the fools begun to fight

We scattered like the shadows

In the early morning light



But she remained to bring the body home

For longer than it seemed

She loved some honest man

Who chased her wildest dreams

And rode her like the wind

And they forged the bloody chains

For some wounds too deep for mendin

But she was there to bring the body home



The barker stood there smilin

As he beckoned us inside

To see the shining creature that had

Grown too big to hide

Look here, he said, hes harmless

And we wished he wasnt lyin

Cause few remained to bring the body home



Ring anvil for the deal

We dealt us by mistake

Our angel made of steel

Is big enough to break

Cause the rust is at his heel

And I swear Ive seen him shakin

And well be here to bring the body home
