Townes Van Zandt - Marie текст песни

Текст
By townes van zandt

I stood in line and left my name

Took about six hours or so

Well, the man just grinned like it was all a game

Said theyd let me know

I put in my time till the pocono line

Shut down two years ago

I was staying at the mission till I met marie

Now I cant stay there no more

Fella cross town said hes lookin for a man

To move some old cars around

Maybe me and marie could find a burned-out

Van and do a little settlin down

Aw, but Im just dreamin, I aint got no ride

And the junkyards a pretty good ways

That jobs about a half week old besides

Itd be gone now anyway

Unemployment said I got no more checks

And they showed me to the hall

My brother died in georgia some time ago

I got no one left to call

Summer wasnt bad below the bridge

A little short on food thats all

Now I gotta get marie some kind of coat

Were headed down into fall

I used to play the mouth harp pretty good

Hustled up a little dough

But I got drunk and I woke up rolled

A couple of months ago

They got my harp and they got my dollar

Them low life so and sos

Harps cost money and I aint got it

Its my own fault I suppose

The poconos down but the chesapeaks runnin

Two freights everyday

If it was just me Id be headed south

But marie cant catch no train

Shes got some pain and she thinks its a baby,

Says we gotta wait and see

In my heart I know its a little boy

Hope he dont end up like me

Well, the mans still grinnin says he lost my file

I gotta stand in line again

I want to kill him but I just say no

I had enough of that line my friend

I head back to the bridge, its getting kinda cold

Im feelin too low down to lie

I guess Ill just tell marie the truth

Hope she dont break down and cry

Marie she didnt wake up this morning

She didnt even try

She just rolled over and went to heaven

My little boy safe inside

I laid them in the sun where somebodyd find them

Caught a chesapeak on the fly

Marie will know Im headed south

Sos to meet me by and by

Marie will know Im headed south

So to meet me by and by
