Tekst piosenki
How many roads had I gone, I got to Feeling like I can’t go on and on Lord it seems, it gets so lonesome when
You’re following dreams
And why was I on that road, where
The angels fear, like a fool I chose
To give a stranger a ride in the night,
He said, «heh listen here darling, I’ll
Open your eyes»
I’ve been up to the bottom, and down to the top
Better not give up until you drop.
There’s a time to live, there’s a time to die
My friend Jack said, he’d tell me why.
You see Jack was a guy back in Vietnam,
He had a key to survival, to dream of a better time,
And boy, joy is a thing of the past
You gotta believe in the future or you won’t last
Oh I believe, I believe in love
Oh I believe in the lord above
Oh I believe in a better life for
You and me and you
Well, the next day he was gone, was he dead
Or had he up and run,
And talk with him all his hopes and his dreams
Me I was left with my nightmares and screams
I’ve been up to the bottom, and down to the top
Better not give up until you drop.
There’s a time to live, there’s a time to die
My friend Jack said, he’d tell me why.
Well I made it back from that bloody war,
My future what had it all been for
No heroes welcome and my woman had left.
See my name is Jack in case you hadn’t guess
Oh I believe, I believe in love
Oh I believe in the lord above
Oh I believe in a better life for
You and me and you
So little lady when your feeling lost
Remember old Jack, remember the cost
So you got no shoes and you wail and weep
But remember there’s a guy who ain’t got no feet
Tłumaczenie tekstu piosenki
How many roads had I gone, I got to Feeling like I can ' t go on and on Lord it seems, it gets so lonesome when
Podążasz za marzeniami
I dlaczego byłem na tej drodze, gdzie
Anioły się boją, jak głupiec wybrałem
To give a stranger a ride in the night,
Powiedział:
Otwórz oczy.»
I ' ve been up to the bottom, and down to the top
Lepiej się nie poddawaj, póki nie padniesz.
There 's a time to live, there' s a time to die
Mój przyjaciel Jack powiedział, że powie mi dlaczego.
Jack był facetem w Wietnamie.,
Miał klucz do przetrwania, by marzyć o lepszym czasie. ,
And boy, joy is a thing of the past
Musisz wierzyć w przyszłość albo nie przetrwasz
Oh I believe, I believe in love
Oh I believe in the lord above
Oh I believe in a better life for
Ty i ja i Ty
Następnego dnia już go nie było.
A może uciekł?,
I porozmawiaj z nim o wszystkich jego nadziejach i marzeniach
Ja zostałem z moimi koszmarami i krzykami
I ' ve been up to the bottom, and down to the top
Lepiej się nie poddawaj, póki nie padniesz.
There 's a time to live, there' s a time to die
Mój przyjaciel Jack powiedział, że powie mi dlaczego.
Wróciłem z tej cholernej wojny.,
My future what had it all been for
Nie ma bohaterów, a moja kobieta odeszła.
Mam na imię Jack, gdybyś nie zgadł.
Oh I believe, I believe in love
Oh I believe in the lord above
Oh I believe in a better life for
Ty i ja i Ty
So little lady when your feeling lost
Pamiętaj Stary Jack, pamiętaj o kosztach
So you got no shoes and you wail and weep
But remember there 's a guy who ain' t got no feet
