Versuri Sleep Of The Just
The soldier asked my name and did I come here
very often
Well I thought that he was asking me to dance
In my HOLEY coat and hat and him in his red
bonnet
We'd have made a lovely couple but we never had
the chance
[chorus]
And now you say that you've got to go
Well if you must you must
I suppose that you need the sleep of the just
Well it was a powerful day and there were black
crows in the road
And I kept my strong opinions to my chest
I suppose I should have told them that I was on
fire for you
When the bus burst into flames outside some
place, 'The Poet's Rest'
[chorus]
A girl woke up in a naked light and said Oh no
not again
He even looked like her brother in the army but
she never mentions him
He'll be tucked up in his bed tonight with his
dirty-pictures girl
Saying, 'You're some mother's daughter you know
or is it
immaterial girl?'
Now she's pinned up upon the barracks wall in her
home town
All the soldiers taking turns with their
attentions
And as they speculate what she'd look like
beneath that thin nightgown
His family pride was rising up as he cast his
eyes down
