Les Humphries Singers - Mexico


In 1580 we sailed our little ship
around the coast Of Africa down the Gaza strip.
We took some salty bacon and a hammock for a bed.
Then we mixed it with the Spaniards in the middle of the Med.

Well we hired our funds Saw the pretty girls a comin'.
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We hired some more and then we started runnin'
All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

Well Francis Drake said if you really want a fight
The best thing is to catch them in the middle of the night.
We hoisted anchor and powdered up the gun
Then we sailed around in circles and just waited for the fun.

Well we hired our funds Saw the pretty girls a comin'...

Well cannon balls flew and the ship began to sink
the water started risin' so we really had to think.
And then by chance stood a man as black as coal
So we grabbed him by the trousers and we plugged him in the hole

Well we hired our funds Saw the pretty girls a comin'...

Well we fired from the side port and we fired from the back
And then we fired from the galley and through every little crack.
We fired so much that the cook started cooking.
Didn't have to worry so we flew the union jack.

Well we hired our funds Saw the pretty girls a comin'...

.... а выделенные слова - вместо эпиграфа к чему-нибудь:))

She sits alone by a lampost
trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
She says Dad's the one I love the most
but Stipe's not far behind

She never lets me in
only tells me where she's been
when she's had too much to drink
I say that I don't care, I just run my hands
through her dark hair then I pray to God
you gotta help me fly away

And just...
Let her cry..if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing...if it eases all her pain
Let her go...let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be...let her be.

This morning I woke up alone
found a note standin' by the phone
saying baby, maybe I'll be back some day
I wanted to look for you
You walked in I didn't know just what I should do
so I sat back down and had a beer
and felt sorry for myself.


Sayin'...
Let her cry...if the tears fall down like rain ...


Last night I tried to leave
cried so much I could not believe
she was the same girl I fell in love
with long ago
She went in the back to get high
I sat down on my couch and cried
yellin' "Oh mama, please help me!
Won't you hold my hand?"

And
Let her cry...if the tears fall down like rain ...
