Testo Ain't Gonna Worry No More - Peter Case
Testo della canzone Ain't Gonna Worry No More (Peter Case), tratta dall'album Let Us Now Praise Sleepy John
Bare feet popping on a pine wood floor
A tumble rush of desert flowers beside the door
Music boxes pretty with the piebald stripes
Dust smoke diamonds in a shaft of light
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
Everybody's laughing now it won't be long
We've seen a lot of troubles, now the ghost is gone
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
I ain't gonna worry no more
Waiting at the depot for a long damn train
Trying to paint a picture in the pouring rain
Hanging out a window running out of blue
Tom cat in the alley dodged a worn out shoe
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
Everybody's laughing now it won't be long
We've seen a lot of troubles, now the ghost is gone
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
I ain't gonna worry no more
At fourteen dressed in his father's hat
Even had a little mustache just like that
Told the crazy lady at the corner shop
"I'll take a pack of Camels and a bottle of Schnapps"
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
I ain't gonna worry no more
Back then they had a war that weren't no good
Everybody said they'd do what they could
Some went to Canada, some went down
With the FBI to the jail downtown
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
Everybody's laughing now it won't be long
We've seen a lot of troubles, now the ghost is gone
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
I ain't gonna worry no more
Hear the roar of jets coming over the park
The glow of cigarettes in the dark
Do your bones turn to water, does the sky turn black?
Caught in ground zero of a missile attack?
Come on down
Come on down
Ah, come on down
Bananas are cheap, that's United Fruit
They cut off labor unions at the root
Murdered the tribes to clear the way
For the puppet government and CIA
Come on down
Well, I walked by a theater with a shining sign
It said, "Lightnin' Hopkins playing here tonight"
I paid my last three bucks and I went inside
And there he was in the big spotlight
Come on down
Come on down
She's the sweetest woman that I've ever known
If I die tomorrow, before I turn to stone
I'll close my eyes and travel back in time
Twenty-third and Mission walking side by side
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
Everybody's laughing now it won't be long
We've seen a lot of troubles, now the ghost is gone
Come on down I ain't gonna worry no more
I ain't gonna worry no more
