Перевод песни

Песня: If I Had My Druthers
[Johnny:]
If I had my druthers
I'd druther have my druthers
Then anything else I know.
While you'd druther hustle
Accumulatin' muscle
I'd druther watch daisies grow.
While they're growin' slow an'
The summer breeze is blowin'
My heart is overflowin' and so.
If I had my druthers
I'd druther have my druthers
Than anything else I know.

Robert, you think you could agree with that kind of philosophy?

[Bobby:]
Agree? I live it!

If I had my druthers
I'd druther have my druthers
Then work any whereas at all.

[Johnny:]
Don't nobody call.

[Bobby:]
It ain't that I hates it
Why, in fact, I even contemplates it
While watchin' raindrops fall.
I sits there for hours
Developin' my powers
Of figurin' how flowers gets tall.
If I had my druthers
I'd druther have my druthers
Then anything else at all.

[Johnny:]
If I had my druthers
To choose from all the others
I'd druther be like I am.

[Bobby:]
I like you just the way you are.

This thing called employment
Detracts from my enjoyment
And tightens my diaphragm.

[Johnny:]
Oh, you poor lamb!

Whilst I'm doin' nary
A thing that's necessary
I'm happy as a cherrystone clam.

[Bobby:]
Some of my best friends are clams!

If I had my druthers
To choose from all the others
I'd rather be like I am.

[Both:]
If we had our druthers
We'd rather have our druthers
Than anything else we know.
Our forefathers wrote it
And often times we quote it
Whenever we're feelin' low.

[Bobby:]
Monsieur John?

[Johnny:]
As direct descendants

[Bobby:]
We figure independence

[Both:]
Ain't only in Missouri and so.
If we had our druthers
We'd rather have our druthers
Than anything else we know.

[Johnny:]
Why sho'...

[Both:]
Than anything else we know

[Bobby:]
Yebo'...

[Both:]
Then anythin else we know
Enco' ...
Than anything else we know.

[Bobby:]
Goodnight.

[Johnny:]
Leave a call.

Перевод песни:
Если бы у меня была возможность выбора

[Johnny:]
Если бы у меня была возможность выбора,
Я бы скорее выбрал возможность выбора,
Чем всё, что я знаю.
Ты выбираешь вкалывать на работе,
Наращивая мускулы,
А я предпочел бы любоваться на маргаритки,
Когда они неспешно цветут..... [открыть перевод]
