Текст песни Bruce Springsteen - Galveston Bay




Fifteen years Le Bing SonFought side by side with the AmericansIn the mountains and deltas of VietnamIn '75 Saigon felland he left his commandAnd brought his family to the promised land( )Seabrook Texas and the small townsin the Gulf of MexicoIt was delta country and reminded him of homeHe worked as a machinist, put his money awayAnd bought a shrimp boat with his cousinAnd together they harvested Galveston BayIn the mornin' 'fore the sun come upHe'd kiss his sleepin' daughterSteer out through the channelAnd casts his nets into the waterBilly Sutter fought with Charlie CompanyIn the highlands of Quang TriHe was wounded in the battle of Chu LaiAnd shipped home in '68There he married and worked the gulf fishing groundsIn a boat that'd been his father'sIn the morning he'd kiss his sleeping sonAnd cast his nets into the waterBilly sat in front of his TV as the south fellAnd the Communists rolled into SaigonHe and his friends watched as the refugees cameSettle on the same streets and worked the coast they grew up onSoon in the bars around the harbor was talkOf America for AmericansSomeone said, "You want 'em out, you got to burn 'em out"And brought in the Texas klanOne humid Texas night there were three shadows on the harborCome to burn the Vietnamese boats into the seaIn the fire's light shots rang outTwo Texans lay dead on the groundLe stood with a pistol in his handA jury acquitted him in self defenseAs before the judge he did standBut as he walked down the courthouse stepsBilly said "My friend, you're a dead man"One late summer night Le stood watch along the watersideBilly stood in the shadowsHis K-bar knife in his handAnd the moon slipped behind the cloudsLe lit a cigarette, the bay was as still as glassAs he walked by Billy stuck his knife into his pocketTook a breath and let him passIn the early darkness Billy rose upWent into the kitchen for a drink of waterKissed his sleeping wifeHeaded into the channelAnd casts his nets into the water
