Ray Charles - Greenbacks (From "Ray Charles")

Текст и перевод песни Ray Charles - Greenbacks (From "Ray Charles")




As I was walking down the street last night
Вчера вечером я шел по улице.
A pretty little girl came into sight
В поле зрения появилась хорошенькая девочка.
I bowed and smiled and asked her name
Я поклонился, улыбнулся и спросил, как ее зовут.
She said, "Hold it bud, I don't play that game"
Она сказала: "Подожди, приятель, я не играю в эту игру".
I reached in my pocket, and to her big surprise
Я полез в карман, и, к ее огромному удивлению,
There was Lincoln staring her dead in the eyes
Линкольн смотрел ей прямо в глаза.
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
На гринбеке, на гринбековской долларовой купюре
Just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll
Просто маленький кусочек бумаги, покрытый хлорофиллом.
She looked at me with that familiar desire
Она посмотрела на меня со знакомым желанием.
Her eyes lit up like they were on fire
Ее глаза загорелись, словно в огне.
She said, "My name's Flo, and you're on the right track
Она сказала: "Меня зовут Фло, и ты на правильном пути.
But look here, daddy, I wear furs on my back
Но послушай, папочка, я ношу меха на спине.
So if you want to have fun in this man's land
Так что если ты хочешь повеселиться на этой мужской земле
Let Lincoln and Jackson start shaking hands"
Пусть Линкольн и Джексон пожмут друг другу руки.
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
На гринбеке, на гринбековской долларовой купюре
Just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll
Просто маленький кусочек бумаги, покрытый хлорофиллом.
I didn't know what I was getting into
Я не знал, во что ввязываюсь.
But I popped Lincoln and Jackson, too
Но и Линкольна, и Джексона тоже.
I didn't mind seeing them fade out of sight
Я не возражал, глядя, как они исчезают из виду.
I just knew I'd have some fun last night
Я просто знал, что мне будет весело прошлой ночью.
Whenever you in town and looking for a thrill
Когда бы ты ни был в городе и ни искал острых ощущений
If Lincoln can't get it, Jackson sure will
Если Линкольн не сможет этого сделать, то Джексон точно добьется.
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
На гринбеке, на гринбековской долларовой купюре
Just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll
Просто маленький кусочек бумаги, покрытый хлорофиллом.
We went to a nightspot where the lights were low
Мы пошли в ночной клуб, где свет был приглушен.
Dined and danced, and I was ready to go
Пообедал и потанцевал, и я был готов идти.
I got out of my seat, and when Flo arose
Я встал со своего места, и когда Фло встала
She said, "Hold on daddy, while I powder my nose"
Она сказала: "Подожди, папочка, я попудрю носик".
I sat back down with a smiling face
Я сел с улыбкой на лице.
While she went down to the powder place
В то время как она спустилась в пудреницу.
With my greenback, greenback dollar bill
С моим гринбеком, долларовой купюрой гринбека.
Just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll
Просто маленький кусочек бумаги, покрытый хлорофиллом.
The music stopped and the lights came on
Музыка смолкла и зажегся свет.
I looked around and saw I was all alone
Я огляделся и увидел, что я совсем один.
I didn't know how long Flo had been gone
Я не знал, как долго Фло отсутствовала.
But a nose powder sure didn't take that long
Но пудра в носу не займет много времени.
I left the place with tears in my eyes
Я покинул это место со слезами на глазах.
As I waved Lincoln and Jackson a last goodbye
Я помахал Линкольну и Джексону на прощание.
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
На гринбеке, на гринбековской долларовой купюре
Just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll
Просто маленький кусочек бумаги, покрытый хлорофиллом.
