Bern Dan - Oh Sister слова песни
They say you taught me how to talkBet you wish you taught me how to stopyou`re far away now, wish I could take a walk with you someplaceyou explained me to our parentsEnglish wasn`t their first languageThey spoke German, hated Germansconfusing timesOh sisterdown midwest backseat bumpy seatsyou sang my beatles songs with meI sang your Broadway melodies, bad harmonyand where would Willie Mays have beenwithout Jackie Robinsonand who can say what I`d beenwithout you to lead the wayafter I showed some guys I could drinkYou picked me of the lawn I thinkAnd led me to the kitchen sinkWhere I got rid of itSome nights I lay awake in aweAs squinting through the dark I sawYou peeling off your teenage braThe door slightly ajarOh sisterYou lived just across the hallFor 18 summers, 18 fallsuntil you went away to that weird college in Wisconsinand where would Willie Mays have beenwithout Jackie Robinsonand who can say what I`d beenwithout you to lead the waytrust yourself, and you can do anythingthis I give to youMay your heart purr like a bumblebeeMay all your backyards have a treeMay you always be HIV negativeI hope you meet some guy whoTreats women better than I doI don`t even care if he`s a Jew or notOh sisterI remember in the temple hallat out dear father`s funeral you sang like a nightingaleone of his own songsand where would Willie Mays have beenwithout Jackie Robinsonand who can say what I`d beenwithout you to lead the way
