Текст песни Bruce Springsteen - With Every Wish
Ol' catfish in the lake, we called him Big JimWhen I was a kid, my only wish was to get my line in himSkipped church one Sunday rowed out and throw'd in my lineJim took that hook pole and me right over the sideWent driftin' down past old tires and rusty cans of beerThe angel of the lake whispered in my ear"Before you chose your wish son( )You better think firstWith every wish there comes a curse"I fell in love with beautiful DoreenShe was the prettiest thing this old town'd ever seenI courted her and I made her mineBut I grew jealous whenever another man'dCome walkin' down the lineAnd my jealousy made me treat her mean and cruelShe sighed, "Bobby oh Bobby you're such a foolDon't you know before you choose your wishYou'd better think first'Cause with every wish there comes a curse"These days I sit around and laughAt the many rivers I've crossedBut on the far banks there's always another forestWhere a man can get lostWell there in the high trees love's bluebird glidesGuiding us 'cross to another river on the other sideAnd there someone is waitin' with a look in her eyesAnd though my heart's grown wearyAnd more than a little bit shyTonight I'll drink from her waters to quench my thirstAnd leave the angels to worryWith every wish...
