Phil Ochs - The Parade`s Still Passing By слова песни




I got the news todayThat you refused to playCause you never made number oneBut it`s not just the wordsIt`s the deeds that are heardWhen all is said and doneKings take their crownsThey melt them all downTrying to get the gold outYou went to hell andEven when you weren`t sellingYou never ever sold out.You weren`t no leader,You were more like a bleederWho was trying to cry for us allYou weren`t no sageBut your sense of outrageSounded like a trumpet callFifteen years agoIn the old folky showYou were just one voice in the crowdBut now with so few singingYour voice would have been ringingOut `bout twice as loud.There but for fortuneSay a small circle of friendsSome may see the changesSo few see the endsThe pleasures of the harborHave come to you at lastYou may not be marching anymoreBut the parade`s still going past.I`m not taking the blameThat we killed youYou know you did that to yourselfBut it was kind of a shameThat you played that gameYou were better than anyone elseOne shot of your bottleGot you full throttleIt was the friend that was always thereBut your greatest giftAnd the curse you lived withWas that you could always care.
