John Prine - The Great Compromise слова песни




I knew a girl who was almost a ladyShe had a way with all the men in her lifeEvery inch of her blossomed in beautyAnd she was born on the fourth of julyWell she lived in an aluminum house trailerAnd she worked in a juke box saloonAnd she spent all the money I give herJust to see the old man in the moonChorus:I used to sleep at the foot of old gloryAnd awake in the dawns early lightBut much to my surpriseWhen I opened my eyesI was a victim of the great compromiseWell wed go out on saturday eveningsTo the drive-in on route 41And it was there that I first suspectedThat she was doin what shed already doneShe said "johnny wont you get me some popcorn"And she knew I had to walk pretty farAnd as soon as I passed through the moonlightShe hopped into a foreign sports car(repeat chorus)Well you know I could have beat up that fellowBut it was her that had hopped into his carMany times Id fought to protect herBut this time she was goin too farNow some folks they call me a cowardcause I left her at the drive-in that nightBut Id druther have names thrown at meThan to fight for a thing that aint right(repeat chorus)Now she writes all the fellows love lettersSaying "greetings, come and see me real soon"And they go and line up in the barroomAnd spend the night in that sick womans roomBut sometimes I get awful lonesomeAnd I wish she was my girl insteadBut she wont let me live with herAnd she makes me live in my head(repeat chorus)
