Текст (слова) песни: Dire Straits - The Man`s Too Strong
I`m just and ageing drummer boy And in the wars I used to play And I`ve called the tune To many a torture session Now they say I am a war criminal And I`m fading away Father please her my confession I have legalised robbery Called it a belief I have run with the money And hid like a theif I have re-written history With my armies and my crooks Invented memories I did burn all the books And I can still hear his laughter And I can still hear his song The man`s too big The man`s too strong Well I have tried to be meek And I have tried to be mild But I spat like a woman And sulked like a child I have lived behind walls That have made me alone Striven for peace Which I have never known And I can still hear his laughter And I can still hear his song The man`s too big The man`s too strong Well the sun rose on the courtyard And they all did hear him say `You always were a Judas But I got you anyway You may have got your silver But I swear upon my life Your sister gave me diamonds And I gave them to your wife` Oh father please help me For I have done wrong The man`s too big The man`s too strong
