Текст песни Mexico City

Jack and Edie lying across my bed
Flying high like the spirits of the dead
The living and the dead
The living and the dead

Our Lady of Sorrows and the long dark night
How many candles could I light
For the living and the dead
The living and the dead

What's that black smoke rising Jack
Is the world on fire
What's that distant singing
Is it a heavenly choir
The living and the dead
The living and the dead

I think about you Jack, watching the tv
And drinking booze
Shame on you, shame on me
But how can we help it
There was no where else to go
I sent Julie and Billy out on that long hard road
on that long hard roadJolie Holland - Mexico City - http://ru.motolyrics.com/jolie-holland/mexico-city-lyrics.html

on that long hard road

I'm just back from Mexico city
I came back north to Texas
To rest my weary head
My true love is fresh from the battle field

Sewing up the dying and carting off the dead
My baby don't stand for no fighting
Amongst the living and the dead

What's that black smoke rising Jack
Is the world on fire
What's that distant singing
Is it a heavenly choir

The living and the dead
The living and the dead
The living and the dead
The living and the dead
The living and the dead
The living and the dead
