Turnpike Troubadours - Long hot summer day [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Well I’m Gonna pick up some of these empties Lord
As soon as I find where they lay
Tied off of them jolly and leaving lines
On a long hot summer day yea

Chorus:
For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River
Get a half a day off with pay
Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges
On a long hot summer day

Well I got me a gal in Pecan
She's a good ole' gal okay
Oh she's sitting there waitin’ by a window fan
On a long hot summer day

Chorus:
For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River
Get a half a day off with pay
Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges
On a long hot summer day

Well Last night we had pork for supper
And Tomorrow it'll be chicken consommИ
And a fruit jar full a iced tea
On a long hot summer day. Yea

Chorus:
For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River
Get a half a day off with pay
Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges
On a long hot summer day

Well we dropped a man off in Beardstown
When we got off yesterday
Gonna get off down in Alton
On a long hot summer day

Chorus:
For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River
Get a half a day off with pay
Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges
On a long hot summer day

For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River
Get a half a day off with pay
Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges
On a long hot summer day

For every day I workin’ on the Illinois River
Get a half a day off with pay
Oh Tow boat pickin’ up barges
On a long hot summer day
