Mark Knopfler - The Mans Too Strong слова песни
Im just an ageing drummer boyAnd in the wars I used to playAnd Ive called the tuneTo many a torture sessionNow they say I am a war criminalAnd Im fading awayFather please hear my confessionI have legalised robberyCalled it beliefI have run with the moneyAnd hid like a thiefI have re-written historyWith my armies and my crooksInvented memoriesI did burn all the booksAnd I can still hear his laughterAnd I can still hear his songThe mans too bigThe mans too strongWell I have tried to be meekAnd I have tried to be mildBut I spat like a womanAnd sulked like a childI have lived behind wallsThat have made me aloneStriven for peaceWhich I never have knownAnd I can still hear his laughterAnd I can still hear his songThe mans too bigThe mans too strongWell the sun rose on the courtyardAnd they all did hear him sayyou always were a judasBut I got you anywayYou may have got your silverBut I swear upon my lifeYour sister gave me diamondsAnd I gave them to your wifeOh father please help meFor I have done wrongThe mans too bigThe mans too strong
