The Ballad Of The Jersey Wives (Loud Hailer 2016)

Текст песни Jeff Beck - The Ballad Of The Jersey Wives (Loud Hailer 2016)

[Verse 1]
9:03 in September
News reader wept, man, we all can remember
All I was left with was a wedding ring
But without him this gold band
It just don't mean a thing

And it all played out like a bad B-movie
But there were holes in the plot
And the actors didn't move me
You think that I'm mad but I know to my core
I've read the official truth
But there's a truth worth fighting for

[Chorus]
Bang, bang, bang at the door
I bang at the door, I bang at the door
I kick, kick, kick down the door
I kick down the door 'til the door is no more

Now I shout at shadows while we swing at ghosts
Chase cowards down corridors
While our children grow
Do you know what its like to scream
At the top of your lungs
And have not one single person look up
From their sums?
I'll bellow my song 'til the day that I die
For the fatherless children and the husbandless wives
And the military man with his oil black gun
Just patted my head and said
"Darling, what's done is done"
What's done is done

[Chorus]
Bang, bang, bang at the door
I bang at the door, I bang at the door
I kick, kick, kick down the door
I kick down the door 'til the door is no more

Bang, bang, bang at the door
I bang at the door, I bang at the door
I kick, kick, kick down the door
I kick down the door 'til the door is no more

[Guitar solo]
'Til the door is no more
