Highwaymen - Songs That Make A Difference [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse]
Hey Babe, do you remember
Back in nineteen sixty-nine?
We gathered round the room
You sang yours and I sang mine
We took turns with the guitar
In the front and center seat
Shel and Kris and Dylan
And a couple off the street
Joni Mitchell cried on, "Both Sides Now."
We sang songs that made a difference
And we can again somehow
Everybody knew that this
Was quite a special night
Graham Nash was nervous
In the hot seat, in the light
Joe South was total magic
And we all walked in his shoes
Orbison and Rabbitt cried
And they rocked the country blues
Mickey Newbury's, "San Francisco Mabel Joy."
We sang songs that made a difference
June was pregnant with my boy
Oh, I could make a living
Driving nails or driving trucks
Sleep beneath the bridge
Or in the streets, down on my luck
[Willie Nelson]
I'd stand the cold and hunger
If they'd let me hear the songs
Everybody write one
That us bums can sing along
[Kris Kristofferson]
Keep it from the heart and down to earth
Sing the songs that make a difference
Give us all our money's worth

[Chorus]
Hey, Keep it from the heart and down to earth
Sing the songs that make a difference
Give us all our money's worth
