Текст песни Winter in America (Live) - Gil Scott-Heron
In
case
you
haven′t
been
there
lately
We
have,
and
the
season
is
back
I
mean,
it
was,
it
was
holiday
weather
for
a
minute
Or
when
I
was
just
on
vacation
I'll
tell
you
a
story
There
used
to
be
an
agreement
between
the
seasons
I
mean,
after
a
while
they
decided
to
sit
down
and
work
it
out
And
they
agreed
that
they
were
gonna
just
come
and
stay
About
three
months
each
And
then
they
would
go
to
wherever
seasons
go
When
they′re
not
where
you
are
And
this
would
be
a
cycle
and
it
would
go
on
all
the
time
And
then
one
year
in
America,
one
of
the
seasons
got
mad
And
decided
it
was
going
to
stay
Decided
that
the
way
things
were
done
there
made
it
feel
at
home
He
would
not,
he
wouldn't
go
when
he
was
supposed
to
I
mean
it
wasn't
the
people
The
people
runnin′
this
stuff,
you
know
what
I′m
sayin'
It
was
something,
there
was
some
kind
of
vibe
there
Made
it
feel
like
it
weren′t
leaving,
it
was
just
not,
just
not
gonna
go
It
wasn't
in
terms
of
the
temperature,
it
was
in
terms
of
the
philosophy
The
politics,
the
psychology,
the
way
things
were
going
in
other
directions
And
so
for
a
long
time,
where
we
come
from
there′s
no
spring
And
no
summer
and
no
fall
We
have
been
taken
over
by
the
season
of
ice
Very
few
people
recognise
it
for
what
it
is
Although
they
feel
uncomfortable
Very
few
people
recognise
the
fact
that
somehow
the
seasons
don't
change
I
mean,
you
can
acclimate
it,
you
can
politically
acclimate
it
You
can
philosophically
acclimate
it
You
start
to,
you
start
to
relate
everything
to
the
season
of
ice
And
so
your
dreams
become
frozen,
and
your
ideas
become
frozen
Your
promises
become
frozen
in
this
Frozen
days,
and
frozen
nights
Frozen
aspirations
and
frozen
inspiration
There′s
something
wrong,
I
mean,
there's
something
wrong
I
mean,
there's
something
wrong,
I
mean
There′s
something
wrong,
I
mean
We′d
like
to
talk
to
you
about
a
season
that
is
taking
over
America
The
season
is
winter
This
song
is
called,
"Winter
in
America"
From
the
Indians
who
welcomed
the
pilgrims
And
to
the
buffalo
who
once
ruled
the
plains
Like
the
vultures
Circling
beneath
the
dark
clouds
Looking
for
the
rain
Hey,
they've
been
looking
for
the
rain
Just
like
the
cities
staggered
on
the
coastline
Livin′
in
a
nation
that
just
can't
much
more
Like
the
forest
they
buried
beneath
the
highway
Never
had
a
chance
to
grow
Well,
they
never
had
a
chance
to
grow
And
now
it′s
winter
Come
on,
sing
if
you
know
the
words
Seemed
like
winter
in
America
A
time
when
all
of
the
healers
done
been
killed
Or
been
betrayed,
say
People
know
that
something's
wrong
Everybody
oughta
know
winter
Seemed
like
winter
in
America
The
truth
is
there
ain′t
nobody
fighting
Because,
well
nobody
knows
what
to
save
Brother,
save
your
soul
Lord
knows
it's
winter
in
America
The
Constitution,
a
noble
piece
of
paper
With
free
society
Well,
they
struggled
but
they
died
in
vain
And
now
democracy
is
ragtime
on
the
corners
On
the
cord,
hoping
it'd
rain
Yes,
he′s
been
a-hopin′
for
some
rain
But
it
just
don't
look
like
rain
And
I
see
the
robins,
yeah,
perched
in
barren
tree
tops
Watching
last-ditch
racists
marching
across
the
floor
And
like
the
peace
sign
that
filtered
in
our
dreams
That
never
had
a
chance
to
grow
Yeah,
they
never
had
a
chance
to
grow
Somebody
want
to
go
tell
them
it′s
winter
It's
cold,
it′s
like
winter
in
America
Time
when
all
the
healers,
people
who
have
done
been
killed
Or
been
betrayed,
say
But
the
people
know
there's
something
wrong
Hey,
it′s
winter
It
seems
like
winter
in
America
The
truth
is
there
ain't
nobody
fighting
'Cause,
well
nobody
knows
what
to
save
Aw,
sister
save
your
babies
Yes,
winter
in
America
I
said
hey,
hey,
hey
It′s
winter
It′s
cold,
it's
like
winter
in
America
Time
when
all
the
healers,
brothers
who
have
done
been
killed
And
put
them
in
jail,
say
People
know
there′s
something
wrong
Something
wrong
with
winter
It
feels
like
winter
in
America
The
truth
is
there
ain't
nobody
fighting
because
Well
nobody
knows
what
to
save
Yes
and
the
truth
is
There′s
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
Thank
you
all
Thank
you,
thank
you
