Tekst piosenki
Weevils took to cotton and cows all took too dry
What the varmints left behind the sun took up to die
Trouble took to daddy like dew drops take to night
Lonely took to mama when daddy took to wine
And I took the train out of there
I told the engineer I don’t believe there’s nowhere handy
Heaven help the ties that bind the family
Sister took to walking, brother took to testifying
Mama took to moaning and I took up with crying
Hatred took the nighttime
And the government took the day
What the hens refused to do The good sister learned for pay
And I took the train out of there…
Fever took to daddy, daddy took to gone
Sister took to black real nice
And mama cried alone
Brother took up preaching and the bank man took the farm
The state came and took mama away
So she can’t do no harm
And I took the train out of there…
Tłumaczenie tekstu piosenki
Weevils take to cotton and cows all taken too dry
Co szkodniki zostawiły za słońcem zabrały na śmierć
Trouble took to daddy like dew drops take to night
Samotny zabrał do mamy kiedy tata wziął do wina
I odjechałem stamtąd pociągiem.
Powiedziałem inżynierowi, że nie ma nic przydatnego.
Heaven help the ties that bind the family
Siostra poszła na spacer, brat zeznawał
Mama zaczęła jęczeć, a ja płakałam.
Nienawiść zabrała noc
A rząd wziął dzień
Czego kury odmówiły, dobra siostra nauczyła się za pieniądze.
I odjechałem stamtąd pociągiem.…
Fever took to daddy, daddy took to gone
Sister taken to black real nice
I mama płakała sama
Brat zaczął głosić kazania, a bank przejął farmę.
The state came and took mama away
Więc nie może nic zrobić.
I odjechałem stamtąd pociągiem.…
