《Strange Fruit》歌词

[00:00:00] Strange Fruit - Carmen McRae (卡门·麦克蕾)

[00:00:01] Written by：Lewis Allen

[00:00:18] Southern trees bear a strange fruit

[00:00:28] Blood on the leaves and blood at the root

[00:00:37] Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze

[00:00:46] Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees

[00:01:13] Pastoral scene of the gallant south

[00:01:20] The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth

[00:01:31] Scent of magnolias sweet and fresh

[00:01:42] Then the sudden smell of burning flesh

[00:01:51] Here is fruit for the crows to pluck

[00:01:59] For the rain to gather for the wind to suck

[00:02:11] For the sun to rot for the trees to drop

[00:02:26] Here is a strange and bitter crop
