《City Of Gold》歌词

[00:00:00] City Of Gold - Pearls Before Swine

[00:00:14] I have crawled across the burning sands to the city of gold

[00:00:26] When I scratched upon the gates

[00:00:31] Oh Lord and I felt so old

[00:00:38] My talking it was only words my smile was only teeth

[00:00:50] Though I had so many friends there

[00:00:53] I knew I was alone

[00:00:56] Oh Lord I felt like a thief

[00:01:02] I saw a man all wrapped in chains

[00:01:09] And wracked with pain all through

[00:01:15] I said I saw your face once in a pane of glass

[00:01:22] And he said I saw you

[00:01:28] Then he handed me a book I asked him what it was

[00:01:40] But just then all the town's people gathered around

[00:01:47] To look at all the blood

[00:01:52] The people they all jeered at him

[00:01:59] And circled him all round

[00:02:05] And an old man pulled a gun from his pants

[00:02:11] And laughed and shot him down

[00:02:17] They called for gas they pulled out knives

[00:02:24] What they did I will not say

[00:02:30] Then the old man turned to me

[00:02:33] Said we don't like your kind

[00:02:36] And I knew that I was saved
