Текст песни Kaatskill Serenade

CHO
Where are the men that I used to sport with?
And what has become of my beuatiful town?
Wolf my old friend, even you don't know me
This must be the end, my house has tumbled down

My land was rich but I wouldn't work it
I guess I made a shrew of my wife
My duty clear I could always find some way to shirk it
I threw away the best years of my life
It seems like only this morning I went up into the mountains
No word of warning, just the usual curse
I hated the house with all of the nagging and fighting
But to live in this strange world is a thousand times worse David Bromberg - Kaatskill Serenade - http://ru.motolyrics.com/david-bromberg/kaatskill-serenade-lyrics.html

CHO

They called me by name, they bought me that cheaply
They called me by name, I didn't know what to think
I watched their loud game and oh I drank deeply
Though no one had ever asked me to drink
And you know that stolen liquor it was sweeter than whiskey
And a thousand times quicker just to put me to sleep
But drinking with strangers can be very risky
The sleep it was long, it was twenty years deep.
