Текст песни Rasputin (7" Version) - Boney M.

There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks, he was such a lovely dear

He could preach the bible like a preacher
Full of ecstacy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire

Ra-Ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra-Ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on

But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger
For power became known to more and more people
The demands to do something about this outrageous man
Became louder and louder

"This man's just got to go," declared his enemies
But the ladies begged "Don't you try to do it, please"
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute, they just fell into his arms

Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they're not to blame
"Come to visit us," they kept demanding
And he really came

Ra-Ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
They put some poison into his wine
Ra-Ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all and he said, "I feel fine"

Ra-Ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
They didn't quit, they wanted his head
Ra-Ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
And so they shot him 'til he was dead

Oh, those Russians...
