When I first came to town All the people gathered round They bought me drinks Lord, how they quickly changed their tuneWhen I first came to town People took me round from end to end Like someone may take round a friend O how quickly they changed their tuneSuspicion and dark murmurs surround me Everywhere I go they confound me As though the blood on my hands Is there for every citizen to seeO sweet jesus There is no turning back There is always one more town A little further down the trackAnd from my window, across the tracks I watch the juicers burn their fires And in that light Their faces leer at me How I wish they'd just let me beWhen I first came to town Their favours were for free Now even the doors of the whores of this town Are closed to meI search the mirror And I try to see Why the people of this town Have washed their hands of meO sweet jesus There is no turning back There is always one more town A little further down the trackO lord, every god-damn turn I take I fear the noose, I fear the stake For there is no bone They did not break In all the towns I've been beforeWell those that sin against me are snuffed out I know from every day that I live God-damn the day that I was born The night that forced me from the womb And god-damn this town For I am leaving now But one day I will return And the people of this town will surely see Just how quickly the tables turnO sweet jesus This really is the end There is always one more town A little further round the end
Это интересно:Об альбоме Henry's Dream:
Henry's Dream — седьмой студийный альбом группы Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, изданный в 1992 году.
Henry’s Dream один из самых почитаемых альбомов у поклонников группы, однако, сам Кейв остался недоволен им, потому что Bad Seeds собирались сделать настоящий шедевр, а не просто качественный рок-альбом, каким вышел Henry’s Dream.
Тем не менее альбом получил положительные оценки критиков, старейший и уважаемый музыкальный еженедельник Melody Maker поставил его на 7 место в списке лучших альбомов 1992 года. В записи Henry’s Dream приняли участие новые члены Bad Seeds: Мартин Кейси и Конвэй Савэдж, оба австралийцы. Вслед за альбомом последовал тур из пятидесяти пяти концертов, по итогами которого вышел концертный альбом Live Seeds.
