Chadwick Stokes - Adelaide текст песни

He fell in love with a reservation girl
During the time of the sugar beet harvest
They moved out west to the coast where he built her a bed
Made of shag-bark from Sherwood Forest
And life was good until she told him goodbye
Said they was better off living separate lives
And maybe they was
Well, should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us for all our time
We left Worcester with our boots and our bags
And America undressed herself in front of our eyes
My sister told me, my sister told me That there’s gangs in the hills when the hickory falls
And you never know when you’re gonna run from it all
Like she did
Should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us for all our time?
Adelaide, you know you’re just no good for me You know it’s just so hard to see that you were right
Adelaide, you know you’re just no good for me You know it’s just so hard to see that you were right
You were right
She was dangling her legs over the little Colorado River
Catching the last bit of sunlight in all of Arizona
Told me, Arizona told me so I asked her if she wanted to fly
If maybe she needed a ride anywhere at all
Should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us for all our time?
Adelaide, you know you’re just no good for me You know it’s just so hard to see that you were right
Oh, that you were right
Oh Willy, I wish that you could love me less
Oh Willy, I wish that you could love me less
I tried, he said underneath his breath, I’ve tried
Oh Willy, I wish that you could love me less
Oh Willy, I wish that you could love me less
I tried, he said underneath his breath, I’ve tried
Adelaide, you know you’re just no good for me You know it’s just so hard to see that you were right
Adelaide, you know you’re just no good for me You know it’s just so hard to see that you were right
Oh, you were right
