Mark Knopfler - Madame Geneva’s (Remastered 2021)
Текст песни
Текст песни: I'm a maker of ballads right pretty
I write 'em right here in the street
You can buy them all over the city
Yours for a penny a sheet
I'm a word pecker out of the printers
Out of the dens of Gin Lane
I write up a scene on a counter
Confessions and sins in the main, boys
Confessions and sins in the main
Then you'll find me in Madame Geneva's
Keeping the demons at bay
There's nothing like gin for drowning them in
But they'll always be back on a hanging day
On a hanging day
They come rattling over the cobbles
And sit on their coffins of black
Some are struck dumb and some gabble
Top-heavy on brandy or sack
The pews are all full of fine fellows
And the hawker has set up her shop
As they're turning 'em off at the gallows
She'll be selling right under the drop, boys
Selling right under the drop
Then you'll find me in Madame Geneva's
Keeping the demons at bay
There's nothing like gin for drowning them in
But they'll always be back on a hanging day
On a hanging day
I write 'em right here in the street
You can buy them all over the city
Yours for a penny a sheet
I'm a word pecker out of the printers
Out of the dens of Gin Lane
I write up a scene on a counter
Confessions and sins in the main, boys
Confessions and sins in the main
Then you'll find me in Madame Geneva's
Keeping the demons at bay
There's nothing like gin for drowning them in
But they'll always be back on a hanging day
On a hanging day
They come rattling over the cobbles
And sit on their coffins of black
Some are struck dumb and some gabble
Top-heavy on brandy or sack
The pews are all full of fine fellows
And the hawker has set up her shop
As they're turning 'em off at the gallows
She'll be selling right under the drop, boys
Selling right under the drop
Then you'll find me in Madame Geneva's
Keeping the demons at bay
There's nothing like gin for drowning them in
But they'll always be back on a hanging day
On a hanging day
