Lyrics and translation Lead Belly - Poor Howard




Poor Howard
Бедняга Говард
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...
