Текст песни Monument in Green

Well, I rode the green across this country
Horses lived and died to take me
Men, I killed to help me get there
Further West I died to take me

Blackened face and dirty laundry
Many days since I have eaten
Found myself a family
Broke my back, so I could feed them

High in the wind, standing in the sun, we're going to
Raise up the heavens with a shovel and a gun
I was so much younger then, I would never ever listen
I am so much older now, I thought that things
Would end up different, farewell, lover in green

Elizabeth she is my lady
Says the prayers and does the learning
Waking up all the children
Making love in the early morning

We took to building up the cities
We built the churches in our cities
Happy in the green country
In the green they buried me

High in the wind, standing in the sun, we're going to
Raise up the heavens with a shovel and a gun
I was so much younger then, I would never ever listen
I am so much older now, I thought that things
Would end up different, farewell, lover in green

Well, I'm dead now
My wife Elizabeth is at my side
I've got children all around me
I've got grandchildren

I've got great grandchildren
I've got great, great, great, great grandchildren
Too many for me to remember
Maybe one of them is you
