Текст на „Shane“

Shane got a mama who knew how to dance
and, Shane, he had a sister, studied in France.
His pa was Cherokee,
such a handsome family.
 
Yeah, Shane had a brother I never knew,
he was held up in a prison in Malibu
and every night, we'd pray 
for his return someday.
 
Oh, my Shane, baby, you ain't to blame.
We were wild and young.
Sorry, baby, you got stung.
But my sweet Shane, 
you were my joy and my pain.
Don't you see I had to make a point
to marry my Cherokee boy?
 
Yeah, Shane had eyelashes 
that could tickle my face 
and a mane, even when messy, 
not a hair out of place
and he would sing to me ever-so sweetly,
oh, yeah, out on the porch every afternoon
playin' Johnny Cash and sippin' Mountain Dew
till the sun went down, down in Dothan, Alabama.
 
But, oh, my Shane, such a beautiful name.
I know you had to pay that bill 
when I didn't take my pill.1
But my sweet Shane, 
you were my joy and my pain
Don't you see I had to make a point
to marry my Cherokee boy?
 
Oh, you were so blind, you see, 
I played you like a toy, yeah.
But baby, lie to me, tell me you love me.
Shane, say you still love me.
 
Shane, he had a pair of lips that when he'd speak,
they made me start wishin' I could be his teeth
and his eyes so black, they'd give you a heart attack.
 
He had a swagger that could make me swoon 
and when we'd go to steppin', 
he held the room without a care.
I'd know Shane anywhere.
 
Oh, my Shane, baby, you ain't to blame.
I know I really screwed you good,
I had a fucked-up childhood.
My sweet Shane, you were my joy and my pain.
But don't you see I had to make a point 
to marry my Cherokee boy?
Baby, you gave me pain, gave me joy,
and a beautiful Cherokee boy.
