Текст, перевод и аккорды “Letter in The Mail”
If I could go down now While the whole town is sleeping See the sun creeping up on the hill I know the river and the railroad Would run through the valley still I guess it never was much to look at Just a one-horse town The kind of place young people want to leave today Store fronts pretty much boarded up Main street pretty much closed down The church bell still rings on sunday Old folks still go The young ones listen on the radio Saturday night nothing but a stray dog running wild Like nobodys child And little by little, light after light Thats how it died They say you never go home again Thats no lie Its like a letter in the mail To a brother in jail Its a matter of time Until you can do a little bit better time It used to be part of the heartland Awful proud and strong But deep, deep down peaceful and serene When people used to talk about the country Thats what they used to mean I might go down come the weekend Go on my own Drop off annie and the baby Maybe drive alone Pay my last respects to a time That has all but gone We said, mama come look at the mountain Fire in the sky Its lit up like the fourth of july The mill burning down The jobs leaving town The trains rolling by And little by little, light after light Thats how it died They say you never go home again Thats no lie Its just a letter in the mail To a brother in jail Its a matter of time Until you can do a little bit better time
