The Highwaymen все тексты (слова) песен, переводы, видео, клипы

I am a shotgun rider for the San Jacinto line,
The desert is my brother, my skin is cracked and dry.
I was riding on a folk coach and everything was fine,
'Til we took a shorter road to save some time.
The bandits only fired once, they shot me in the chest.
They may have wounded me but they'll never get the best,
Of better men:
'Cos I'll ride again.

[Nelson:]
I taught the weepin' willow how to cry, cry, cry.
[Kristofferson:]
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.
[Jennings:]
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you, big river.
[Cash:]
And I'm gonna sit right here until I die.

[Jennings:]
The wind blows hard across the Texas planes.
Makes some people go insane,
While others quietly pray for rain.
That's where we came from.

[Jennings:]
Two boys playing in the burning sun,

I was a highwayman. Along the coach roads I did ride
With sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
But I am still alive.

I was a sailor. I was born upon the tide

Well I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it
'Cause I know just what I'm gonna do
I'll start to spend my money callin' everybody honey
And wind up singin' the blues

I'll spend my whole paycheck on some old wreck
And brother I can name you a few
Well I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it

[Nelson:]
Jim, Jim, I wore a tie today,
The first one that I ever wore.
You'd have said that I looked like a dummy,
Out of a dry goods store.

[Cash:]
Jim, Jim, the preacher said a lot of things,

Verse 1:(Kris Kristofferson)
I'm gonna steal a silver stallion,with not a mark upon his silky hide
Teach him he can trust me like a brother,one day we'll saddle up and ride

Chorus:(All together with the lead voice of Johnny Cash)
And we're gonna ride,we're gonna ride
Ride like the one eyed jack of diamonds with the devil close behind
We're gonna ride

Hey, babe, do you remember back in 1969?
We gathered 'round the room; you sang yours and I sang mine
We took turns with guitar in the front and center seat
Shel and Chris and Dylan and a couple off the street
Joni Mitchell cried on "Both Sides Now”.
We sang songs that made a difference and we can again somehow

Everybody knew that this was quite a special night

Come out of the darkness.
Don't hide in the night.
Come out in the sunshine.
And we'll be all right.

Life's too long to worry.
And it's too short to cry.
And it's too deep to measure.

As I was going over Kilgara Mountain,
I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
First I drew my pistol and I rattled forth my saber,
Sayin': "Stand and deliver for I am your bold receiver"

Musha ringum duram da
Whack! fol de daddy-o
Whack! fol de daddy-o
