Текст песни DIRE STRAITS - Telegraph Road
A long time ago came a man on a trackwalking thirty miles with a pack on his backand he put down his load where he thought it was the besthe made a home in the westhe built a cabin and a winter storeand he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shoreand the other travellers came riding down the track( )and they never went further and they never went backthen came the churches then came the schoolsthen came the lawyers then came the rulesthen came the trains and the trucks with their loadsand the dirty old track was the telegraph roadThen came the mines - then came the orethen there was the hard times then there was a wartelegraph sang a song about the world outsidetelegraph road got so deep and so widelike a rolling river. . .And my radio says tonight it's gonna freezepeople driving home from the factoriesthere's six lanes of trafficthree lanes moving slow. . .I used to like to go to work but they shut it downI've got a right to go to work but there's no work here to be foundyes and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owedwe're gonna have to reap from seed that's been sowedand the birds up on the wires and the telegraph polesthey can always fly away from this rain and this coldyou can here them singing out their telegraph codeall the way down the telegraph roadYou know I'd sooner forget but I remember those nightswhen life was just a bet on a race between the lights
