Текст Johnny Flynn — Raising the Dead

Your old man’s in the kitchen
He’s a smile short of laughing
And the radio’s a-beaming
From the stars that are coughing up

The change in his pockets
And the shrug in his shoulders
And the glove from his fingers
And the love that I hold for him

Oh oh, raising the dead
Raising the dead
Raising the dead
Oh oh, raising the dead

Raising the dead
Raising the dead
And those old songs are twitching
With the knees that are pitching

And the fair world’s a-grinning
And the old got it spinning
To the place where he lived
And the room that he died in

There’s a new song playing on the radio that night
Oh oh, raising the dead
Raising the dead
Raising the dead

Oh oh, raising the dead
Raising the dead
Raising the dead
He operates on an oath preconceived

To take down the pillars of our society
Walking out of sadness
Walking out of grief
Walking out of gladness and

Walking like a thief
Oh oh, raising the dead
Raising the dead
Raising the dead

Oh oh, raising the dead
Raising the dead
Raising the dead
I collaborate with spirit

I helped it find its way back to me
Where I’ve delivered myself on my way
On my way to the old man in
The kitchen on my way

To the fiery broken-hearted
People who all who say
Oh oh, raising the dead
Raising the dead

Raising the dead
Oh oh, raising the dead
Raising the dead
Raising the dead

Oh oh, raising the dead
Raising the dead
Raising the dead
Oh oh, raising the dead
Raising the dead
Raising the dead
