Текст песни Mike Eldred Trio - Papa Legba

Текст:

PAPA LEGBA We’ll shake dem bones by the light of the fire, The ol’ woman screaming at the funeral pyre, The cracklin’ wood an’ a far away moan Oh Papa Legba, won’t you leave me alone. Tie two roosters together, fightin’ in the mud, Twenty-dollar bills justa covered with blood. Soul sweat drippin’ an’ I can’t find my way, Rub some ashes on your heart, cuz we all gonna pay. I could run on an’ hide but I don’t know where, Scrape the mud off my boots, an’ put some wax in my hair, Keep your dogs off me, let me pass through the night, I hear your cold whisper say, “It’s gonna be alright”. Go away Legba, leave your crutch by the door, Enough of your tricks I can’t take it no more. Pour some oil on my head, carve a cross outta bone, Oh Papa Legba won’t you leave me alone.
