Johnny Cash - Chicken in Black Превод текста

Chicken in Black

For two long years my head hurt bad
So a doctor checked me and he shook his head
He said, 'I'm sorry to tell you,
But your body's outlived your brain,'
 
He said, 'I know this doctor in New York, son,
And he'll fix you right up with a brand new one,'
So the head doctor met me
When I stepped down off the train
 
He said: 'We had this bank robber killed last night,
His body's shot but his brain's all right
I'll give you a transplant, boy,
And you'll be OK,'
 
I got my new brain in, and I was feelin' great,
I went right back to Nashville with no headache
But something strange happened
When I walked in the bank one day
 
I said: 'Stick 'em up everybody, I'm robbin' this place
Drop all of your money in my guitar case
Don't nobody move and don't nobody reach for that door,'
A lady said: 'Why, you're Johnny Cash,'
I said, 'No ma'am, I'm the Manhattan Flash,
And I am the best bank robber in New York,'
 
Now the other night Roy Acuff called me
He said, 'John, I'd like for you to do the Opry,'
So I went out on the stage, but I couldn't sing
I got into a half a verse of 'I Walk The Line',
And something snapped in this head of mine
I yelled, 'Stick 'em up -
Give me your money, your watches and rings,'
 
Well, I called New York and talked to that brain quack
I said, 'Doc, I've gotta have my old brain back,'
He said, 'I'm sorry there, Mr. Cash, but I can't do that,'
He said, 'I put your brain in a chicken last Monday,
He's singing your songs and makin' lots of money,
And I got him signed to a ten year recording contract,'
 
Now friends, if you see me walkin' down the street,
Remember what you see ain't necessarily me
And if I try to hold you up, don't pay me no mind,
But when you got ten bucks that you can blow,
You oughta catch that Johnny Chicken show
He's doin' fairs and concert dates
All up and down the line
 
I said: 'Stick 'em up everybody, I'm robbin' this place
Drop all of your money in my guitar case
Don't nobody move and don't nobody reach for that door,'
A lady said: 'Why you're Johnny Cash,'
I said, 'No ma'am, I'm the Manhattan Flash,
And I am the best bank robber in New York,'
 
Well, I don't pay any income tax
You don't pay tax on money you steal
You oughta catch that Johnny Chicken show
Chicken In Black! hmmmmmmmm!
