Paroles Bruce Springsteen Galveston Bay

Fifteen years Le Bing Son
Fought side by side with the Americans
In the mountains and deltas of Vietnam
In '75 Saigon fell
and he left his command
And brought his family to the promised land
Seabrook Texas and the small towns
in the Gulf of Mexico
It was delta country and reminded him of home
He worked as a machinist, put his money away
And bought a shrimp boat with his cousin
And together they harvested Galveston Bay
In the mornin' 'fore the sun come up
He'd kiss his sleepin' daughter
Steer out through the channel
And casts his nets into the water
Billy Sutter fought with Charlie Company
In the highlands of Quang Tri
He was wounded in the battle of Chu Lai
And shipped home in '68
There he married and worked the gulf fishing grounds
In a boat that'd been his father's
In the morning he'd kiss his sleeping son
And cast his nets into the water
Billy sat in front of his TV as the south fell
And the Communists rolled into Saigon
He and his friends watched as the refugees came
Settle on the same streets and worked the coast they grew up on
Soon in the bars around the harbor was talk
Of America for Americans
Someone said, "You want 'em out, you got to burn 'em out"
And brought in the Texas klan
One humid Texas night there were three shadows on the harbor
Come to burn the Vietnamese boats into the sea
In the fire's light shots rang out
Two Texans lay dead on the ground
Le stood with a pistol in his hand
A jury acquitted him in self defense
As before the judge he did stand
But as he walked down the courthouse steps
Billy said "My friend, you're a dead man"
One late summer night Le stood watch along the waterside

Billy stood in the shadows
His K-bar knife in his hand
And the moon slipped behind the clouds
Le lit a cigarette, the bay was as still as glass
As he walked by Billy stuck his knife into his pocket
Took a breath and let him pass
In the early darkness Billy rose up
Went into the kitchen for a drink of water
Kissed his sleeping wife
Headed into the channel
And casts his nets into the water
Of Galveston Bay

  A l'attention de KevinV3 Certes les 4 titre que tu sites sont entrainant et donne l'envie de bouger mais lorsque tu comprends ce qu'il veut dire ca te done plutôt envie de te révolter contre le système. Pense-s'y! !! Sans rancune et en bon fan take a care.

  Cet album enregistré avec le seeger sessions, ne se nomme pas " God bless America " mais il porte le titre de la chanson " We shall overcome " Merci de rectifier ceci.

  Rien de tel que du Bruce Springsteen pour ses sentiments !! "I'm on fire" ou The River" quand c'est pas la joie ou "Born In The USA" et "Glory Days" lorsqu'on a envie de bouger ou quand on est heureux !!
