Вступление
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I was 19 when I came to town
They called it the summer of love
They were burning babies, and burning flags
The hawks against the doves
I took a job at the steaming way
Down on Caltrim St
Fell in love with a laundry girl
That was workin' next to me
[Chorus]
She was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
So fine, a breath of wind would blow her away
And she was a lost child, oh she was runnin' wild
She said "As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay
And you wouldn't have it any other way"
[Verse 2]
Brown hair zig zagged around her face
In a look of half surprise
Like a fox caught in the headlights
There was an-i-mal in her eyes
She said "Young man can't you see"
That I'm not the factory kind?
If you don't get me out of here
I'll surely lose my mind"
[Chorus]
She was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
So fine, that I might crush her where she lay
And she was a lost child, oh she was runnin' wild
She said "As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay
And you wouldn't have it any other way"
[Verse 3]
We was campin' down the Gower one time
And the work was pretty good
She said "we shouldn't wait for the frost"
But I thought maybe we should
And we were drinking more in those days
Our tempers had reached a pitch
And like a fool I let her run 'round
With that ramblin' itch
And they say her flower has faded now
Hard weather and hard booze
But maybe that's just the price you pay
For the chains that you refuse
[Chorus]
She was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
So fine, a breath of wind would blow her away
And she was a lost child, oh she was runnin' wild
She said "As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay
And you wouldn't have it any other way"
[Chorus]
She was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
So fine, a breath of wind would blow her away
And she was a lost child, oh she was runnin' wild
She said "As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay
And you wouldn't have it any other way"
