Nana Mouskouri - Dignity слова песни
Fat man lookin` in a blade of steel, thin man lookin` at his last mealHollow man lookin` in a cottonfield for dignityWise man lookin` in a blade of grass, young man lookin` in the shadowsthat passPoor man lookin` through painted glass for dignityCHORUS #1:Somebody got murdered on New Year`s EveSomebody said dignity was the first to leaveI went into the city, went into the townWent into the land of the midnight sunSearchin` high, searchin` low, searchin` everywhere I knowAskin` the cops wherever I go, "Have you seen Dignity?"Blind man breakin` out of a trance, puts both his hands in the pocket ofchanceHopin` to find one circumstance of dignityI went to the wedding of Mary-lou, she said I don`t want nobody see metalkin to youSaid she could get killed if she told me what she knew about dignityCHORUS #2:I went down where the vultures feedI would`ve gone deeper, but there wasn`t any needHeard the tongues of angels and the tongues of men, wasn`t anydifference to meChilly wind sharp as a razor blade, house on fire, debts unpaidGonna stand at the window, gonna ask the maid, "Have you seen dignity?"Drinkin` man listens to the voice he hearsIn a crowded room full of covered up mirrorsLookin` into the lost forgotten years for dignityMet Prince Phillip at the home of the bluesSaid he`d give me information if his name wasn`t usedHe wanted money up front, said he was abused by dignityCHORUS #3:Footprints runnin` cross the silver sand, steps goin` down into tatoolandI met the sons of darkness and the sons of light, in the bordertowns ofdespairGot no place to fade, got no coat, I`m on the rollin` river in a jerkin`boatTryin` to read a note somebody wrote about dignitySick man lookin` for the doctor`s cure, lookin` at his hands for thelines that wereAnd into every masterpiece of literature for dignityEnglishman stranded in the blackheart windCombin his hair back his future looks thinBites the bullet and he looks within for dignityCHORUS #4:Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed, dignity never beenphotographedI went into the red, went into the black, into the valley of dry bonedreamsSo many roads, so much at stake, so many dead ends, I`m at the edge ofthe lakeSometimes I wonder what it`s gonna take to find dignity
