《Bible Belt》歌词

[00:00:01] Dry the River - Bible Belt

[00:00:17] 'Lo and behold your mother is drinking again

[00:00:32] This might be the coldest winter since records began

[00:00:46] You were alone and steady with wintry calm

[00:01:01] Leading the children softly across the fold

[00:01:33] In the morning you march your sisters like soldiers to school

[00:01:47] 'Cause lo and behold your father has drunk quite a few

[00:02:00] You were alone and steady with wintry calm

[00:02:14] Somewhere inside the fire of your youth went dark

[00:02:28] But you swear blind there is no weight in the water pail

[00:02:42] And you say 'my love you take the cards that you're dealt'

[00:02:56] There's no guiding light arcing a line to Bethlehem

[00:03:11] And when it's dark outside you light the fire yourself

[00:03:26] Darling when the ice caps melt

[00:03:29] When the devils in the bible belt

[00:03:32] Don't you cower in your bed

[00:03:39] I'll be at the five-four-five

[00:03:42] You can meet me at the railway line

[00:03:46] Don't look so staid

[00:03:56] 'Cause we've been through worse than this before we could talk

[00:04:09] And the trick of it is don't be afraid anymore

[00:04:20] Oh the trick of it is don't be afraid anymore
