Luis Armstrong - Down by the Riverside
текст песни

I lay out my sword and shield,
Going down the coast of the river,
Down, the coast of the river,
The coast of the river.
I lay out the armor I am mine
Going down the coast of the river,
No longer the science of war for me!

I do not intend to comprehend the art of war,
Comprehend the art of war,
Art of War,
Hallelujah!

I intend to give everyone a hand,
Going down the coast of the river,
Down, the coast of the river,
The coast of the river.
I intend to give any hand,
Going down the coast of the river,
No longer the science of war for me!

I intend to wear white clothes,
Going down the coast of the river ...

And the crown of the stars of midnight decorate the brow,
Going down the coast of the river ...

And the shoe from the gold to complete the outfit,
Going down the coast of the river ...

And with the world in the world to roam, to go,
Going down the coast of the river ...

I do not intend to sing the war anymore,
The art of warfare,
To sing the war
Hallelujah!
