《Bainbridge Avenue》歌词

[00:00:00] Bainbridge Avenue - Bagatelle

[00:00:08] There's a hot sun shining on the roadway

[00:00:12] Going home and it's 8 am

[00:00:15] I've been out all night

[00:00:17] With the boys from home

[00:00:19] I seem to spend a lot of time with them

[00:00:24] One of them comes from my hometown

[00:00:27] But the rest are from far and near

[00:00:32] Following their daddy's footsteps

[00:00:34] And trying to make themselves a new life out here

[00:00:40] And there's a cold wind blowing down the alley tonight

[00:00:45] I'm going out at it's 10 pm

[00:00:49] We'll be out all night

[00:00:50] With the girls from home

[00:00:53] I seem to spend a lot of time with them

[00:00:56] We'd give anything to be in Ireland

[00:01:00] But there's nothing for us there but tears

[00:01:04] And does anyone in Glocca Morra ever wonder

[00:01:09] How are things with us out here

[00:01:13] The ups and downs

[00:01:14] Of a big old town

[00:01:16] They'll hit you like a freight train here

[00:01:20] You've got to learn to stand

[00:01:22] On your own two feet

[00:01:24] But it's hard sometimes with all the beer

[00:01:28] There's always somebody standing behind you

[00:01:31] Emigration or internal revenue

[00:01:36] And I'm slowly going downhill

[00:01:38] Walking up Bainbridge Avenue

[00:01:44] Some of us are going

[00:01:45] To a night class

[00:01:47] To get a qualification or two

[00:01:51] Because we just can't walk

[00:01:53] Into the police department

[00:01:55] Like our old folks used to do

[00:01:59] In my hometown

[00:02:00] They can't field a football team

[00:02:03] Because the whole bloody league's over here

[00:02:07] So we help each other

[00:02:09] Keep our act together

[00:02:11] And we watch our people march every year

[00:02:15] The ups and downs

[00:02:16] Of a big old town

[00:02:19] They'll hit you like a freight train here

[00:02:22] You've got to learn to stand

[00:02:24] On your own two feet

[00:02:26] But it's hard sometimes with all the beer

[00:02:30] There's always somebody standing behind you

[00:02:34] Emigration or internal revenue

[00:02:38] And I'm slowly going downhill

[00:02:40] Walking up Bainbridge Avenue

[00:02:47] At home we're just not wanted

[00:02:50] But we don't really mind

[00:02:54] They're only five short hours ahead

[00:02:58] But a hundred years behind

[00:03:01] And two guys in my house

[00:03:03] Work in Wall Street

[00:03:05] Because they did their homework back home

[00:03:09] And one of my sisters

[00:03:11] Works for IBM

[00:03:13] So it's a good life out here for some

[00:03:17] And all the bars in the village

[00:03:19] Are open all night

[00:03:21] And we go back to hear the music play

[00:03:25] So we stay here on

[00:03:27] The streets of New York city

[00:03:29] Till the earls can fly home one day

[00:03:33] The ups and downs

[00:03:34] Of a big old town

[00:03:36] They'll hit you like a freight train here

[00:03:40] You've got to learn to stand

[00:03:42] On your own two feet

[00:03:44] But it's hard sometimes with all the whiskey and beer

[00:03:48] There's always somebody standing behind you

[00:03:52] Emigration or internal revenue

[00:03:56] And I'm slowly going downhill

[00:03:58] Walking up Bainbridge Avenue

[00:04:04] Yeah we're slowly going downhill

[00:04:06] Walking up Bainbridge Avenue
