Todd Snider - Текст песни West Nashville Grand Ballroom Gown
Standin' on side of the Highway 4 exit
A lady in tie-dye, a bag by her side
Not really lookin' like anything special
Saw Tennessee tags and she waved for a ride
Sat right beside me as the meter hit sixty
'Splainin' her travels and her family background
When she got through I could not help but thinkin'
She's a long way from a West Nashville grand ballroom gown
Father had money and her mother had love
Channelled entirely to her dear sister Dove
Twenty-two years in society's plan
Was cancelled in the swing of her dear mother's hand
Six hours later we hit Cincinnati Todd Snider - West Nashville Grand Ballroom Gown - http://ru.motolyrics.com/todd-snider/west-nashville-grand-ballroom-gown-lyrics.html
Yawnin', she woke and then asked where we were
When she found out, she said I must be goin'
This close to Nashville was too close for her
So I stopped by the roadside and I gave her five dollars
She took it then kissed me and gave me a note
She told me just to read it then mail it in Nashville
On old loose-leaf paper to her mother she wrote
She said, "Mama I'm fine if you happen to wonder
I don't have much money but I still get around
I haven't made church in near thirty-six Sundays
So fuck all those West Nashville grand ballroom gowns"
Yes she's a long way from a West Nashville grand ballroom gown
