Текст песни My Brother - Jim Capaldi

Capaldi

He's just a copy of his father and mother
You'd never notice him up against another
But this I've got to tell you, my brother.

He's the kind of guy who'll take you in
But all he really wants to do is win
And after you've given him everything.

He will try and bring you down
And he'll lay you in the ground
So don't let him get his way
Or you'll be sorry someday.

Oh, they will try and bring you down
And they'll lay you in the ground
So don't let them get that way
Or you'll be sorry someday, yeah.

I took my guitar to a local dance
Asked the man there if he'd give me a chance
But he just looked at me and smiled, here's what he said:

'I'd like to help you, sonny, all that I can'
'But first you got to sign this contract here in my hand'
But I just told him no, that it wasn't my scene.

They will try and bring you down
And they'll lay you in the ground
So don't let them get their way
Or you'll be sorry someday.

Don't you let them get my way
No, don't you let them get my way.
