Lyrics and translation Bob Dylan - Subterranean Homesick Blues (Take 1)

Subterranean Homesick Blues (Take 1)

Подземная тоска по дому (Дубль 1)

Johnny's in the basement

Джонни в подвале,

Mixing up the medicine

Смешивает снадобья.

I'm on the pavement

Я на тротуаре,

Thinking about the government

Думаю о правительстве.

The man in the trench coat

Мужчина в плаще,

Badge out, laid off

Без значка, уволен,

Says he's got a bad cough

Говорит, что у него сильный кашель,

Wants to get it paid off

Хочет получить за это компенсацию.

Look out kid

Берегись, детка,

It's somethin' you did

Это что-то, что ты сделала.

God knows when

Бог знает когда,

But you're doing it again

Но ты делаешь это снова.

You better duck down the alleyway

Тебе лучше нырнуть в подворотню,

Lookin' for a new friend

Ища нового друга.

The man in the coonskin cap, in the big pen

Мужчина в енотовой шапке, в большой клетке,

Wants eleven dollar bills but you only got ten

Хочет одиннадцать долларов, но у тебя только десять.

Maggie comes fleet foot

Мэгги идет быстрым шагом,

Face full of black soot

Лицо в черной саже,

Talkin' that the heat put

Говорит, что жара заставила

Plants in the bed but

Растения взойти, но

The phone's tapped anyway

Телефон все равно прослушивается.

Maggie says that many say

Мэгги говорит, что многие говорят,

They must bust in early May

Что они должны ворваться в начале мая,

Orders from the D.A. look out kid

Приказ от прокурора. Берегись, детка,

Don't matter what you did

Неважно, что ты сделала.

Walk on your tip toes

Ходи на цыпочках,

Don't try "No Doz"

Не пробуй "Но-Доз",

Better stay away from those

Лучше держись подальше от тех,

That carry around a fire hose

Кто таскает с собой пожарный шланг.

Keep a clean nose

Держи нос в чистоте,

Watch the plain clothes

Следи за штатскими.

You don't need a weather man

Тебе не нужен синоптик,

To know which way the wind blows

Чтобы знать, куда дует ветер.

Get sick, get well

Заболей, выздоровей,

Hang around a ink well

Крутись возле чернильницы,

Ring bell, hard to tell

Звони в колокол, трудно сказать,

If anything is goin' to sell

Удастся ли что-нибудь продать.

Try hard, get barred

Старайся, получи отказ,

Get back, write braille

Вернись, пиши шрифтом Брайля,

Get jailed, jump bail

Попади в тюрьму, внеси залог,

Join the army, if you fail

Вступи в армию, если потерпишь неудачу.

Look out kid

Берегись, детка,

You're gonna get hit

Тебя ударят.

But losers, cheaters

Но неудачники, мошенники,

Six-time users

Шестикратные наркоманы

Hang around the theaters

Слоняются вокруг театров.

Girl by the whirlpool

Девушка у водоворота,

Lookin' for a new fool

Ищет нового дурачка.

Don't follow leaders, watch the parkin' meters

Не следуй за лидерами, следи за парковочными счетчиками.

Ah get born, keep warm

А родись, согрейся,

Short pants, romance, learn to dance

Короткие штанишки, романтика, научись танцевать,

Get dressed, get blessed

Оденься, получи благословение,

Try to be a success

Постарайся добиться успеха.

Please her, please him, buy gifts

Угождай ей, угождай ему, покупай подарки,

Don't steal, don't lift

Не воруй, не поднимай.

Twenty years of schoolin'

Двадцать лет обучения,

And they put you on the day shift

И они ставят тебя на дневную смену.

Look out kid

Берегись, детка,

They keep it all hid

Они все скрывают.

Better jump down a manhole

Лучше прыгни в люк,

Light yourself a candle

Зажги себе свечку,

Don't wear sandals

Не носи сандалии,

Try to avoid the scandals

Старайся избегать скандалов.

Don't want to be a bum

Не хочешь быть бомжом,

You better chew gum

Лучше жуй жвачку.

The pump don't work

Насос не работает,

'Cause the vandals took the handles

Потому что вандалы сняли ручки.
