Nicki Bluhm and the Gramblers - Simpler Times [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Simpler times were spent here, less to care for or about
Shepard to feed and the bay to turn out
Simpler times were spent here, the drawer of bills to spend
But I gave it up for you, and I'd give it up again
In the golden light of those dusty dirt road days
The sunset was as far as I could see
Then one day, tomorrow came a-chugging down the tracks
All aboard, ma'am this train ain't coming back

[Chorus]
But those simpler times, they keep on tugging
At the hem of my skirt, a memory stains
In those simpler days, when I could smoke my mind away
Or could it be I'm living simple, when I sing?

[Verse 2]
As I'm drifting back through our bedroom along the grass
The pot of coffee blowing in the wind
To the Canon park, watch the fireworks 'til dark
Now the only spark is change dragging down the road

[Chorus]
All those simpler times, they keep on tugging
At the hem of my skirt, a memory stains
In those simpler days, when I could smoke my mind away
Or could it be I'm living simple, when I sing?
Could it be I'm living simple when I sing?
