Home of The Brave — текст песни (Lou Reed)

Heres to johnny with his jo

And mickeys got a wife

And heres to jerry

He has got his joyce



And me, Im shaking

In my boots tonight

For the daughters and the sons

Lost in the home of the brave



And heres to the home of the brave

And heres to the life thats not saved

Heres to the home of the brave

Heres to the home of the brave



Heres to frank hit in some bar

In picturesque brooklyn heights

And heres to a friend who jumped in front of a train

At seven oclock one night



And another friend who thinks he lacks worth

Has disappeared from sight

Somewhere in the home

Of the brave



And heres to the home of the brave

And heres to the life thats not saved

Heres to the home of the brave

Heres to the home of the brave



The stars are hiding in their clouds

The street lights are too bright

A mans kicking a woman

Whos clutching his leg tight



And I think suddenly of you

And blink my eyes in fright

And rush off to the home

Of the brave



And heres to the home of the brave

Heres to the home of the brave

And heres to the life that is saved

Heres to the home of the brave



And everyday you have to die some

Cry some and die some

And everyday you have to die some

Cry some and die



In the home of the brave

Home of the brave
