Текст, перевод и аккорды “Carmichael”
- A silk scarf and a napkin Hidden in a drawer Two hundred bucks in an envelope Labeled �Lenore' "Maybe she shouldn't see this. She should never know," Said the widow's best friend, Ann, "I'll just take it and go." "I'll give her the money later Say it was in his shoe That way she'll never find out That'll do." "Carmichael was a credit to the force In everything he did. It's like we got a big hole in our side Where he fit. "If any of you officers Would like to say a word, Now would be the time To be heard." "Well, thank you, Chief, I sure would. Carmichael was a partner of mine. He was always very careful. And he played it straight down the line." One by one, the officers spoke And the service came to a close He had no living relatives but his wife And she never showed She just couldn't face the men They all understood They got in their cars And drove home as directly as they could "Carmichael, you asshole," the new widow sobbed beneath her veil "Shot down in the line of duty Is that how justice never fails?" "I wish that things were better When we said goodbye today But we had our share of good times though Along the way. "Remember, hey Mr. Las Vegas, You used to be so cool We met Wayne Newton down at Pebble Beach And you acted like a fool? "We just couldn't stop laughing It seemed so funny to us We left our luggage back in the hotel And almost missed the bus. "That was a great vacation Maybe the best of all But God damn it, Carmichael, you're dead now And I'm talkin' to the wall." The force got back to normal Carmichael was replaced For one year nobody parked a car In Carmichael's space.
