paroles de chanson He's Alright - Colin Buchanan

It was a casual question on a casual night
How is the Old Man, how is the farm?
It was a badly disguised lump in the throat
And a far away look in her eyes

He's all right if all right means he's barely been sober
For over a week
He's all right if all right means that he comes and he goes
Just as he pleases, he's all right if you know what I mean

And she wished she could tell them just a piece of the truth
The holes in the fences, the burrs in the fields
And she wished she could say that she was feeling betrayed
Without betraying the man that she loved

He's all right if all right means he's barely been sober
For over a week
He's all right if all right means that he comes and he goes
Just as he pleases, he's all right if you know what I mean

It was a hope for the future growing empty and cold
Two many bad years, too many debts
It was a hope that had taken nearly all that they had
And left them with nowhere to turn

He's all right if all right means he's barely been sober
For over a week
He's all right if all right means that he comes and he goes
Just as he pleases, he's all right if you know what I mean
He's all right if you know what I mean
He's all right if you know what I mean
He's all right if you know what I mean
