Текст Old Crow Medicine Show – A World Away

I’m a world away, right outside your window
I got money in my pocket and I brought a nice bottle of wine
I think I’m on the list, do you see my name there?
I’ve come a long hard way and I’m lookin’ for a better time

I’m a world away
I’m a world away
Standin’ at the gates
With my suitcase
But I’m a world away

Hey it’s a real nice place, do you need some help here?
I can sleep, I can paint, I can play a little violin
If you let me stay, oh you won’t need to worry
I’ll be the life of the party if you just let me slip on in
Oh girl I wade through the river and I marched through the sand
Now I standin’ at the gates of the Promised Land
Oh but you say that you gotta leave ’em locked up tight
If you please
?
I’ll sleep out here tonight

I’m a world away
I’m a world away
Standin’ at the gates
With my suitcase
But I’m a world away

How can you know the hard times I’ve had?
Kept in
?
and almost left for dead
I got a needle streakin’ in my veins
I’ve come to
?

But I’m a world away, right outside your window
I got money in my pocket and I brought a nice bottle of wine
I think I’m on the list, do you see my name there?
I’ve come a long hard way and I’m lookin’ for a better time

I’m a world away
I’m a world away
Standin’ at the gates
With my suitcase
But I’m a world away
I’m a world away
Standin’ at the gates
With my suitcase
But I’m a world away
