Mike Cooper - Trout Steel [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Riverboat captain, they called my name
Time to sing my song
I didn't know that the song was wrong
Don't sing that way again

The wind and the trees, there's a pain in my knees
Please don't ask me again
If I can get across this river
I'll always be your friend

Friend came into the room there
To talk about booze and song
He asked me for the number there
The one I'd always wronged

The wind and the trees, there's a pain in my knees
Please don't ask me again
If I can get across this river
I'll always be your friend

The railroad yard was crowded
We didn't rail or mine
But band [?] found some room to play
And follow all the signs

The wind and the trees, there's a pain
Please don't ask me again
If I can get across this river
I'll always be your friend
