Текст песни Caledonia Mission - 2000 Digital Remaster - The Band

She reads the leaves and she leads the life
That she learned so well from the old wives
It's so strange to arrange it
You know, I wouldn't change it
But hear me if you're near me
Can I just rearrange it?
The watchman covers me with his remedy
I can't see, it's hard to feel
I think his magic might be real
I can't get to you from your garden gate
You know, it's always locked by the magistrate
Now, he don't care why you cry
You know, he thinks it's just a lie to get out
I don't doubt that you'd make a try
If the good times get you through
I know the dogs won't bother you
We'll be gone in moonshine time
I got a place they'll never find
You know, I do believe in your hexagram
But can you tell me how they all knew the plan?
Did you trip or slip on their gifts?
You know, we're just a con
You knew it, why'd you do it
I've been hiding in the dark
Now I must be on my way
I guess you really have to stay
Inside the mission wall
Down in Modoc, Arkansas
