I wish I could як сі маєш

Слова і музика: Mickey and Bunny

Well I came to this country

And what did I find

I didn't know a word that was said

I couldn't "як сі маєш"

So I was inclined

To get a few words in my head

I soon learned the bad words

The Ukies would say

And here is the total

That I picked up today

Приспів:

Кубаса, горівка,

Дай мені beer

Дай Боже, to you

Ходи сюда, here

Нині, "дай Боже!"

А завтра, "ой Боже!"

I wish I could "як сі маєш"

I met кукурікуs

But I didn't have to talk

I could hardly stand

I "дай Боже!", too much

Нині, "дай Боже!"

А завтра, "ой Боже!"

I wish I could "як сі маєш"

I met with some бабиs

And went out one night

They were drinking

Вино made at home

They took me into

A booze parlor in town

We got дуже п'яні alone

Now whether I'm crazy,

Or whether I'm not

A night in the криминал

Is all that I got

With my

Приспів

I woke up next morning

They let me go home

I was still little bit

П'яні from the wine

I had them go past the same

Booze parlor in town

I went in for a drink,

'nother one time

I'm now in this country

For thirty-five years

I still don't know word

That is said

I can't "як сі маєш"

But I'm still inclined

To get few more words in my head

Oh the bad words I know

Cause they're real easy to say

But good words like these

Are the best ones today

And that's

Варіянт

I came into Two Hills
Well I came to this country

I didn't "як сі маєш"
I couldn't "як сі маєш"

I will soon learn the bad words
I soon learned the bad words

But here is the total
I picked up today
And here is the total
That I picked up today

A night in the jailhouse
That's all that I got
A night in the криминал
Is all that I got
