Testo Goat Annie - Carole King
Testo della canzone Goat Annie (Carole King), tratta dall'album Breaking Up Is Hard To Do
When I was young I used to see her
Herdin' her goats on the hillside
No one knows
And she ain't tellin' her age
I'd say she's just about 75
She's an old timer
Tryna hold on to what she's got
They call her Goat Annie
I still remember the stories
The townspeople told to each other
Just because she liked her goats
Better than people
They said the devil was her brother
She never paid them no mind
She just kept on bein' herself
Goat Annie
She's a real individual
One of a dying breed
Everything she's got
Right now is
All she'll ever need
One day the government decided
They had to have the land she lived on
They came with the papers
Polite as could be
They said she had just 30 days to get gone
You could see them smirking
We're just doin' our job here
You understand, Goat Annie
She said, I was born and raised here
Ain't never done wrong to no one
You ain't all gonna throw me off of my land
Not me or my goats or my shotgun (shotgun)
Then she levelled her 12-gauge
With a blast, she sent 'em packin'
Go, Goat Annie
Next day they came with the law men
But that didn't get 'em nowhere
Rather than shoot at a poor old lady
They decided to let her live her days out there
It doesn't happen very often
But there are still some people with heart
Like Goat Annie
Goat Annie
Goat Annie
Go, Goat Annie
Go, Goat Annie
Go, Goat Annie
Get 'em, goat Annie
Goat Annie
