Original text with translation

Honest Men

Janet Devlin

Where have all the honest men gone?

I’m flocked by vultures in the summer sun

They take what they can get, then gone in another breath

Where have all the honest men gone?

My shoes are filled with lead, what can I do?

It’s sink or swim or just avoid the truth

So I’ll take what I can get, and accept the consequence

But where have all the honest men gone?

Now there’s tears in my eyes, oh no surprise

Cause there’ll be tears in my eyes till the day I die

So angel of death, why haven’t you kissed me yet?

Oh angel of death, I long for your caress

So won’t you save me, oh save me

Oh, won’t you save me, oh save me

Where has all my happiness gone?

It disappeared the moment I sang your song

I’ll be buried in this noose, it’s written in the books

But where have all the honest men gone?

Now there’s tears in my eyes, oh no surprise

Cause there’ll be tears in my eyes till the day I die

Oh angel of death, why haven’t you kissed me yet?

Oh angel of death, I long for your caress

So won’t you save me, oh save me

Oh, won’t you save me, oh save me

My soul wasn’t enough you want it all, you wanted blood

My soul wasn’t enough you want it all, you wanted blood

My soul wasn’t enough you want it all, you wanted blood

My soul wasn’t enough you want it all, you wanted blood

My soul wasn’t enough you want it all, you wanted blood

My soul wasn’t enough you want it all, you wanted blood

But where have all the honest men gone?
