《Skid Row Joe》歌词

[00:00:00] Skid Row Joe - Porter Wagoner

[00:00:00] Skid Row Joe

[00:00:09] Last night that's who I found in the dirty part of town

[00:00:18] Lost forgotten with no place to go

[00:00:26] Tormented with a bitter taste outcast

[00:00:32] By the human race

[00:00:35] A mask of torture was

[00:00:37] The face of Skid Row Joe

[00:00:46] He walked up to the grass

[00:00:47] I stood on the street

[00:00:48] Said pardon me Mister now don't

[00:00:51] Get me wrong I don't want your money

[00:00:53] Though heaven knows I could use it

[00:00:56] But you see this is my home and

[00:00:59] You see the other bar down the street

[00:01:02] Well that's my home too

[00:01:04] I noticed you starin' at me a while ago

[00:01:07] You recognized me didn't you

[00:01:09] I said yeah Joe I know who you are

[00:01:12] You was one time a real famous

[00:01:16] Singing star one of my favorites

[00:01:21] He said well I guess you heard

[00:01:22] They took my babies away from me

[00:01:25] I said yeah Joe

[00:01:27] I read about it in the papers

[00:01:30] Then he turned his head away and

[00:01:31] I saw the tears fall in the place

[00:01:34] And he turned to me and

[00:01:35] He said you know Mister

[00:01:37] This is the only place in the world that

[00:01:40] I'm not ashamed to show my face

[00:01:44] But I'm gonna quit yes sir I'm gonna quit

[00:01:47] And I'm gonna shame and comb my hair

[00:01:49] And get me a clean white shirt

[00:01:52] Then I'm gonna walk up to her door

[00:01:54] When she answers

[00:01:55] I'm gonna stand up real proud and tall

[00:02:00] Then I'm gonna get on my knees

[00:02:03] Then I'll say sweetheart

[00:02:04] If you'll take me back

[00:02:06] I'll spend the rest of

[00:02:07] My life makin' up to

[00:02:09] You for what I've done

[00:02:12] I'm so ashamed of myself and this

[00:02:14] I want you to know

[00:02:17] Then I'm gonna take my two little babies

[00:02:18] And I'm gonna hold 'em so close to me

[00:02:22] I ain't gonna never let 'em go

[00:02:28] I guess I should've told him then that

[00:02:32] She'd already remarried again

[00:02:36] But after hearin' what he'd said to me

[00:02:40] Why there wasn't no way

[00:02:41] I could add to his misery

[00:02:44] So I said good luck

[00:02:47] My best to you Skid Row Joe
