Almost Home
He had plastic bags wrapped 'round his shoes
He was covered with the evening news
Had a pair of old wool socks on his hands
The bank sign was flashing 5 below
It was freezing rain and spittin' snow
He was curled up behind some garbage cans
I was afraid that he was dead
I gave him a gentle shake
When he opened up his eyes
I said, "Old man are you ok?"
He said,"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree
I was runnin' from some honey bees
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze
After jumpin' into Calico creek
I was walkin' down an old dirt road
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
'Cause I was almost home"
He said "I was just comin' round the barn
'Bout the time you grabbed my arm
When I heard Momma holler, "Son hurry up"
I was close enough for my old nose
To smell fresh cobbler on the stove
And I saw daddy loadin' up the truck
Cane poles on the tailgate
Bobbers blowin' in the wind
Since July of '55
That's as close as I've been"
He said,"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree
I was runnin' from some honey bees
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze
After jumpin' into Calico creek
I was walkin' down an old dirt road
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
'Cause I was almost home"
I said,"Old man you're gonna freeze to death
Let me drive you to the mission"
He said,"Boy if you'd left me alone
Right now I'd be fishin'"
He said,"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree
I was runnin' from some honey bees
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze
After jumpin' into Calico creek
I was walkin' down an old dirt road
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
'Cause I was almost home"
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
Cause I was almost home (almost home)
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
I was almost home

Умирает Любовь
(Музыка и Слова – Блондинка КсЮ) Дай уйти туда, куда нет пути Как жаль, печаль на части рвет сердце Броситься бежать и не ждать ответа… Не вини меня за это! Не надо! Нет! В поисках
Несвободное Падение
Мы миражи, ничего кроме лжи Между нами давно стена Двое чужих, мы привыкли так жить И опять что-то держит нас. Но надо бежать, чтобы вырваться ветром в окно Надо бежать и что дальше уже всё-равно. Припев: Несвободное
Мамбо
А южные ночи так к себе зовут, щекочут, И чайки на склонах пальмы Там шумят, как волны. Побывать мечтаешь там, где до рассвета Ты сгоришь в танце огня. Мамбо, мамбо днём и ночью, Мамбо, мамбо сколько
Іде Звізда Чудна
Іде звізда чудна з Восток на Полудне. Над вертепом сіяє, трьом царям путь являє. Ішли тріє царі, несли Христу дари Ангел їм звіщає, ангел їм звіщає, на путь встановляє. Слава Слава! Слава Рожденному! Слава Слава!
