Now there's a crank in every crowd
Sprinkling gunpowder
Seems that everything is about to blow
They lit the burning paper
With a waxen taper
Sitting up here on Viceroy's RowAnd they're gathering flowers
In the crack of hours where all of the nightmares go
Watching the pipeline as it overflowed
Sitting pretty here on Viceroy's RowHe made a fortune out of barbed wire
In the last days of the Empire
Built a cast-iron curtain
Just to keep controlHe was a tycoon, then a cheapskate
Went out looking for a keepsake
To tuck into his suitcase on Viceroy's RowAnd they're gathering flowers
In the crack of hours where all of the nightmares go
Watching the pipeline as it overflowed
Sitting pretty here on Viceroy's RowHe had a satchel full of cash
And dishes full of ashes
He went from boom to bust
In the blinking of a lashHeard the rat-a-tat of the late patrol
Shooting out the lights up on Viceroy's RowAnd they're gathering flowers
In the crack of hours where all of the nightmares go
They're coming for him slowly
Now the war is over
Sitting up here on Viceroy's RowThe woman in a blindfold
She doesn't want her hand held
Walking through a minefield
Saying "How does this feel?"
Stepping on the quicksand
Going down slow
Hiding up here on Viceroy's RowNothing satisfies
The ruins of his blue eyes
Like blood stains on a diamond mine
And deep within you felt
Not one measure of his guilt
Staring in the dark up on Viceroy's RowYet her penitent lover
Took a ribbon of rubber
Tied her to the bed made of silken threadBut without an ounce of mercy
They denounced him with a curse
Hammering on the door upon Viceroy's RowNow his little concubine in her cemetery drag
Her face all smeared with charcoal
Is leaving all her cares, so
Take 500 acres and see what you can sow
We came to overthrow those on Viceroy's RowThey're gathering flowers
In the crack of hours where all of the nightmares go
Watching the pipeline as it overflowed
Sitting up here on Viceroy's Row

Это интересно:Ruffin got his start singing with Byron Lee and the Dragonaires briefly, before in 1967 joining The Techniques, one of the more successful rocksteady vocal groups of the late 1960s. There he sang alongside Pat Kelly, Winston Riley and Junior Menns. He was one of several talented singers to drift through the Techniques' ranks, but his stay with the group was highlighted by several rocksteady hits that he wrote, the most notable of which was "Love Is Not a Gamble".Restless, Ruffin left the Techniques a year later, returning in 1969 as a solo artist with the upbeat reggae song, "Long About Now".His greatest success came in the 1970s as a reggae-pop solo artist and... продолжение
