Poor
Howard's
dead
and
gone,
left
me
here
to
sing
his
song
Бедняга
Говард
умер
и
покинул
нас,
оставив
мне
петь
его
песню.
Poor
Howard's
dead
and
gone,
left
me
here
to
sing
his
song
Бедняга
Говард
умер
и
покинул
нас,
оставив
мне
петь
его
песню.
Poor
Howard
had
a
wife
and
she
nagged
him
all
his
life
У
бедняги
Говарда
была
жена,
и
она
пилила
его
всю
его
жизнь.
So
he
used
his
butcher
knife---like
I
said
he
had
a
wife
Поэтому
он
воспользовался
своим
мясницким
ножом...
как
я
уже
говорил,
у
него
была
жена.
Now
poor
Howard's
dead
and
gone...
Теперь
бедняга
Говард
умер
и
покинул
нас...
They
took
Howard
off
to
jail,
wouldn't
let
me
go
his
bail,
Они
забрали
Говарда
в
тюрьму,
не
позволили
мне
внести
за
него
залог.
They
said
if
he
is
your
friend,
buy
a
lily
for
his
hand
Они
сказали,
если
он
твой
друг,
купи
лилию
ему
в
руки.
Poor
Howard's
dead
and
gone...
Бедняга
Говард
умер
и
покинул
нас...
When
we
laid
his
bones
to
rest
we
fulfilled
his
last
request
Когда
мы
предавали
его
кости
земле,
мы
выполнили
его
последнюю
просьбу.
He
said
buddies
bury
me
far
from
her
as
I
can
be
Он
сказал:
"Друзья,
похороните
меня
как
можно
дальше
от
неё".
Now
poor
Howard's
dead
and
gone...
Теперь
бедняга
Говард
умер
и
покинул
нас...
His
last
words
were
Friends,
goodbye.
Don't
you
worry;
don't
you
cry.
Его
последними
словами
были:
"Друзья,
прощайте.
Не
волнуйтесь,
не
плачьте.
I
don't
mind
this
a
gettin'
hung,
at
least
I
stopped
her
naggin'
tongue'
Я
не
против
того,
чтобы
меня
повесили,
по
крайней
мере,
я
остановил
её
ворчливый
язык".
Now
poor
Howard's
dead
and
gone...
Теперь
бедняга
Говард
умер
и
покинул
нас...
