Текст песни Bruce Springsteen - From Small Things Big Things One Day Come

From Small Things (Big Things One Day Come) - The Essential Album by Bruce Springsteen

  At sixteen she quit high school 

to make her fortune in the promised land
She got a job behind the counter in an
all night hamburger stand 

She wrote faithfully home to mama
"Now mama don't you worry none"
From small things, mama
Big things one day come

It was late one Friday he pulled in out of the dark
He was tall and handsome; first she
took his order, then she took his heart 

They bought a house on the hillside
Where little feet soon would run
From small things, mama
Big things one day come

Oh but love is fleeting
it's sad but true
But when your heart is beating
You don't wanna hear the news
She packed her bags and 

with a Wyomie County real estate man
She ran down to Tampa
In and "El Dorado Grande"

She wrote back, "Dear Mama
Life is just heaven in the sun
From small things, mama
Big things one day come"

Well alright...

Solo |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 

Well she shot him dead
On a sunny Florida road
When they caught her all she said
Was she couldn't stand the way he drove

Back home dear Johnny

Prays for his baby's parole
He waits on the hillside
Where the Wyomie waters roll

At his feet and almost grown now
 blue-eyed daughter and a handsome son
Well from small things, mama
Big things one day come

Well from small things, mama
Big things one day come
