Tekst piosenki
A lot of good boys from my home town
Got lost in the civil war
They all fell in with Chamberlain and never come back no more
Some got killed some got sick and the rest nobody knows
I heard tell they wound up dyin'
On the banks of the Ohio
My little town never came back from such a fatal blow
Livin' on the edge, lettin' go Livin' on the edge, lettin' go They took the homeboys from the fields
To feed the dogs of war
The Ship of State went sailing off
And the engines they did roar
The girls back home got factory jobs
And moved to bigger towns
Spent there whole life standin' in line
Waitin' for the sun to go down
Waitin' for a word about a young man fallen
On a cold and foreign ground
Livin' on the edge, lettin' go There’s a whole lot of sad stories boys that never did get told
Livin' on the edge, lettin' go We saved the European front and the blue Pacific rim
Then we got to wonderin' which country we were in There’s girls in California boys
But there’s boys in old Siam
Lets all play democracy oh let the games begin
We’ve never gotten over that last mess we were in And the gun boys they are gearin' up to do it all again
Livin' on the edge, lettin' go Sometimes I feel like a spoke on a wheel
Spinnin' right outta control
Livin' on the edge, lettin' go I used to take these country drives
This is my hallowed ground
Now it’s blown out fields and automobiles everywhere I look around
All the factories closing up and the jobs gone overseas
‘Cause hungry people work for nothin' in the colonies
This old town ain’t nothin' like it used to be Livin' on the edge, lettin' go Sometimes I wonder what we gonna do When the whole thing starts to blow
Livin' on the edge, lettin' go A lot of good boys from my home town
Got lost in the civil war
They all fell in with Chamberlain and never come back no more
Some got killed some got sick and the rest nobody knows
I heard tell they wound up dyin'
On the banks of the Ohio
My little town never came back from such a fatal blow
Livin' on the edge, lettin' go Livin' on the edge, lettin' go
Tłumaczenie tekstu piosenki
A lot of good boys from my home town
Zgubiłem się w wojnie secesyjnej.
Wszyscy wpadli do Chamberlaina i nigdy już nie wrócili.
Niektórzy zginęli, inni zachorowali, a reszta nikt nie wie.
Słyszałem, że umierają.
On the banks of the Ohio
Moje miasteczko nigdy nie wróciło z tak fatalnego uderzenia.
Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go they took the homeboys from the fields
By nakarmić psy wojny
Okręt Państwa odpłynął
And the engines they did roar
Dziewczyny w domu mają pracę w fabryce.
I przeniósł się do większych miast
Spędziłem tam całe życie stojąc w kolejce
Waitin ' for the sun to go down
Waitin ' for a word about a young man fallen
On a cold and foreign ground
Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go There ' s a whole lot of sad stories boys that never did get told
Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go we saved the European front and The blue Pacific rim
{C: $ 398dc6} Then we got to wondering which country we were in There' s girls in California boys {s: 15}
Ale w Starym Syjamie są chłopcy.
Let ' s all play democracy Oh let the games begin
Nigdy nie przebolaliśmy tego ostatniego bałaganu, w którym byliśmy, a chłopcy z bronią szykują się, by zrobić to jeszcze raz.
Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go Sometimes I feel like a spoke on a wheel
Spinnin ' right outta control
Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go I used to take these country drives
To moja Święta Ziemia.
A teraz wysadza pola i samochody wszędzie, gdzie się rozejrzę.
Wszystkie fabryki zamykają się, a miejsca pracy znikają za granicę.
'Cause hungry people work for nothin' in the colonies
This old town ain 't nothin' like it used to be Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go Sometimes I wonder what we gonna do When the whole thing starts to blow
Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go a lot of good boys from my home town
Zgubiłem się w wojnie secesyjnej.
Wszyscy wpadli do Chamberlaina i nigdy już nie wrócili.
Niektórzy zginęli, inni zachorowali, a reszta nikt nie wie.
Słyszałem, że umierają.
On the banks of the Ohio
Moje miasteczko nigdy nie wróciło z tak fatalnego uderzenia.
Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go Livin 'on the edge, lettin' go
