Текст песни Winter in America - Gil Scott-Heron

And from the Indians who welcomed the pilgrims
And to the buffalos who one ruled the plain
Like the vultures circling beneath the dark clouds
Looking for the rain
Looking for the rain
Just like the cities staggered on the coastline
Livin' in a nation that just can't take much more
Like the forest buried beneath the highway
Never had a chance to grow
Never had a chance to grow
And now It's winter
Seem like winter in America
The time when all of the healers done been killed
Or they been betrayed
But the people know
All of the them know it's winter
Seem like winter in America
And ain't nobody fighting,
Because nobody knows what to save
Save your soul
Lord know it's winter in America
The Constitution, a noble piece of paper would free society,
It struggled but then died in vain
And now Democracy is ragtime on the corner
Hoping for rain
It's been hoping for some rain
And I see the robins perched in barren treetops
They're watching last-ditch racists marching across the floor
And may peace sign that vanished in our dreams
Never had a chance to grow
Never had a chance to grow
And somebody won't know till it's winter
It's cold as like winter in America
This the time when all of the healers done been killed
Or they been betrayed
People know, all the people know it's winter
Yeah, it feel like winter in America
The truth is there ain't nobody fighting
Because nobody know what to save
Winter in America
It's winter, It's cold as like winter in America
This the time when all of the healers done been killed
Or they been betrayed
People know, some know It's winter
Yeah, it seem like winter in America
The truth is there ain't nobody fighting,
Because nobody know what to save
Nobody fighting, nobody fighting
Nobody knows, nobody knows
What to do, what to do
The truth is there ain't nobody fighting,
Because nobody knows what to save
