willi carlisle – the great depression كلمات اغاني
[verse 1]
there is trouble in the darksome sky, he saw it as a boy
from great_grandad’s covered wagon, from the crux of illinois
for the promise of the daffodils amongst the hard limestone
they carved the die of fortune out of buffalo bones
[chorus 1]
they all wandered o’er the salty seas the prairies wide and more
just to make a foolish man like me that’s darkenin’ your door
if the great depression made us, therе is no need to despair
i won’t waste a single momеnt of the work that brought us here
[verse 2]
from the needle_pr_ckin’ mothers who were never taught to read
to the barefoot hungry soldiers that enlisted at sixteen
oh in my dumb debas_m_nt, i still find great relief
that on the lam and on the dole they counted themselves free
[chorus 2]
i have hustled towards the overpass to sleep there in the rain
i have settled with my pocketknife and carved out all their names
if the great depression made us, there is no need to despair
i won’t waste a single moment of the work that brought me here
[verse 3]
from the jailhouse on the border, to the hold beneath the ship
to the weed_fields out in oregon, to the first night that we kissed
from the dungeon of the coalmine to the brightest factory floor
to win our kin a better life is still worth dying for
[chorus 3]
i still cry my eyes out every time i dare to touch the spirit
and if this is our small lot in life i’ll love it like i mean it
the blood is strong with victory that brought us our despair
i won’t waste a single moment of the love that’s buried here
if the great depression made us, there is no need to despair
i won’t waste a single moment of the love that brought me here
