Face Value
The Roof Is Leaking
tekst angielski:
The roof is leaking and the wind is howling
Kids are crying `cos the sheets are so cold
I woke this morning found my hands were frozen
I`ve tried to fix the fire, but you know the damn thing`s too old
It`s been months now, since we heard from our Mary,
I wonder if she ever made the coast
She and her young man, they both moved out there
But I sure hope they write, just to let us know
And me, I`m getting stronger by the minute
My wife`s expecting, but I hope she can wait
`Cos this winter looks like it`s gonna be another bad one
But Spring`ll soon be here,
Oh God I hope it`s not late
Ma and Pa lived here, and theirs before them
Tried their hardest to make it a home
Seems so long now since they passed over
Hope my children`ll try to make it their own
The roof is leaking and the wind is howling
Kids are crying, `cos the sheets are so cold
I woke this morning found my hands were frozen
I`ve tried to fix the fire, but you know the damn thing`s too old
And me, I`m getting stronger by the minute
My wife`s expecting, but I hope she can wait
`Cos this winter looks like it`s gonna be another bad one
But Spring`ll soon be here,
Oh God I hope it`s not late |
