Текст песни BOB DYLAN - Brownsville Girl
Well there was this movie I seen one timeAbout a man riding across the desert and starred Gregory PeckHe was shot down by a hungry kid trying to make a name for himselfThe town's people wanted to crush that kid down and string him up by the neck.Well the Marshall now he beat that kid to a bloody pulpAs the dying gunfighter lay in the sun and gasped for his last breath( )Turn him loose let him go let him say he outdrew me fair and squareI want him to feel what it's like to every moment face his death.Well I keep seeing this stuff and it just comes a-rolling inAnd you know it blows right through me like a ball and chainYou know I can't believe we've lived so long and are still so far apartThe memory of you keeps calling after me like a rolling train.I can still see the day that you came to me on the pinked desertIn your busted down Ford and your platform heelsI could never figure out why you chose that particular place to meetAh, but you were right it was perfect as I got in behind the wheel.Well we drove that car all night 'til we got into San Anton'And we slept near the Alamo your skin was so tender and softWay down in Mexico you went out to find a doctor and you never came backI would have gone on after you but I didn't feel like letting my head get blow off.Well we're driving this car and the sun is coming up over the Rockies Now I know she ain't you but she's here and she's got that dark rhythm in her soulBut I'm too over the edge and I ain't in the mood anymore to remember the times when I was your only manAnd she don't want to remind me. She knows this car would go out of control.Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curlsTeeth like pearls shining like the moon aboveBrownsville girl show me all around the world.Brownsville girl you're my honey love.Well we crossed the panthandle and then we headed towards AmarilloWe pulled up where Henry Porter used to live. He owned a wrecking lot outside of town about a mileRuby was in the backyard hanging clothes she had her red hair tied back. She saw uscome rolling up in a trail of dustShe said "Henry ain't here but you can come on in he'll be back in a little while".Then she told us how times were tough and about how she was thinking of bumminga ride back to where she startedBut she changed the subject every time money came upShe said "Welcome to the land of the living dead". You could tell she was so broken-heartedShe said "Even the swap meets around here are pretty corrupt"."How far are you all going ?" Ruby asked us with a sigh"We're going all the way until the wheels fall off and burnUntil the sun peels the paint and the seat covers fade and the water moccasin dies"Ruby just smiled and said. "Ah you know some babies never learn".Something about that movie though well I just can't get it out of my headBut I can't remember why I was in it or what part I was supposed to playAll I remember about it was Gregory Peck and the way people movedAnd a lot of them seemed to be looking my way.Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curlsTeeth like pearls shining like the moon aboveBrownsville girl show me all around the world.Brownsville girl you're my honey love.Well they were looking for somebody with a pompadourI was crossing the street when shots rang outI didn't know whether to duck or to run so I ranWe got him cornered in the churchyard ? I heard somebody shout.Well you saw my picture in the Corpus Christi Tribune. Underneath it it said:"A man with no alibi"You went out on a limb to testify for me you said I was with youThen when I saw you break down in front of the judge and cry real tearsIt was the best acting I saw anybody do.Now I've always been the kind of person that doesn't like to trepass but sometimes you just find yourself over the lineOh if there's an original thought out there I could use it right nowYou now I feel pretty good but that ain't saying much I could feel a whole lot betterIf you were just here by my side to show me how.Well I'm standing in line in the rain to see a movie starring Gregory PeckYeh but you know it's not the one I had in mindHe's got a new one out now I don't even know what it's aboutBut I'll se him in anything so I'll stand in line.Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curlsTeeth like pearls shining like the moon aboveBrownsville girl show me all around the worldBrownsville girl you're my honey love.You know it's funny how things never turn out the way you had them plannedThe only things we knew for sure about Henry Porter is that his name wasn't Henry PorterAnd you know there was something about you baby that I liked that was always too good for this worldJust like you always said there was something about me you liked that I left behind in the French Quarter.Strange how people who suffer together have stronger connections than people who are most contentI don't have any regrets they can talk about me plenty when I'm goneYou always said people don't do what they believe in they just do what's most convenient then they repentAnd I always said. "Hang on to me baby and let's hope that the roof stays on".There was a movie I seen one time I think I sat through it twiceI don't remember who I was or where I was boundAll I remember about it was it starred Gregory Peck he wore a gun and he was shot in the backSeems like a long time ago long before the stars were torn down.Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curlsTeeth like pearls shining like the moon aboveBrownsville girl show me all around the worldBrownsville girl you're my honey love.
