Ancient Highway - текст песни
Ancient Highway
There’s a small cafe on the outskirts of town
I’ll be there when the sun goes down
Where the roadside bends
And it twists and turns
Every new generation
And I’ll be praying to my higher self
Don’t let me downkeep my feet on the ground
There’s a roadside jam playin’ on the edge of town
In a town called paradise near the ancient highway
When the train whistle blows
All the sadness that hank williams knows
And the river flows
Call them pagan streams and it spins and turns
In a factory in a street called bread in east belfast
Where georgie knows best
What it’s like to be daniel in the lion’s den
Got so many friends only most of the time
When the grass is high and the rabbit runs
Though it’s talkin’ to you and i
And every new generation comes to pay
The dues of the organ grinder jam
And the grinder’s switch of the sacrifice
Everybody made to be rational with understanding
And I’ll be praying to my higher self
Ohdon’t let me downkeep my feet on the ground
What about all the people living in the nightmare hurt
That won’t go away no matter how hard they try
They’ve got to pay time and time againtime and time again
I’ll be praying to my higher self
And I’ll be standin’ therewhere the boats go by
When the sun is sinking way over the hill
On a friday evening when the sun goes down
On the outskirts of townI wanna slip away
I wanna slip awaygot to get away
And I’ll be praying to my higher self
Don’t let me downkeep my feet on the grounddon’t let me down
You’ll be cryin’ againyou’ll be cryin’ againyou’ll be cryin’ again
By the same wipe the teardrops from your eyes
Have to slip away in the evening when the sun goes down
Over the hillwith a sense of wonder
Everything gonna be right on a friday evening
All the cars go by all along down
The ancient highway
And I’ll be prayingI’ll be praying to my higher self
Don’t let me downkeep my feetkeep my feet on the ground
Keep my feet on the ground
Travelling like a stranger in the nightall along the ancient highway
Got you in my sightsgot you on my mind
I’ll be praying in the evening when the sun goes down
Over the mountaingot to get you right in my sight
As the beams on the cars from the overpass
On the ancient highway shine like diamonds in the night
Like diamonds in the night
I’ll be praying to my higher selfto my higher self
Don’t let me downdon’t let me down
And you’ll be standing therewhile the boats go by
While the boats go by on a friday evening
Shining your lightshining your light on a friday evening
Got to slip awaygot to slip away down that ancient highway
In a town called paradisein a townin a town
All alongall along that roadall along that road
All along that road with the trancelike vision
I’ll be praying to my higher selfdon’t let me downdon’t let me down
Keep my feet on the groundkeep my feet on the ground
Keep my feet on the ground
Friday evening got to slip away
Watching the view from a car from the overpass
And we’re driving down that ancient road
Shining like diamonds in the nightoh diamonds in the night
All along the ancient highway
Got you in my sightgot you in my mind
Got you in my arms and I’m prayingand I’m gonna pray
I’m gonna prayto my higher selfah don’t let me down
Don’t let me downgive me the fireah give me the fire
