《Back On The Corner》歌词

[00:00:00] Back On The Corner - John Hiatt

[00:00:19] Back on the corner

[00:00:20] I'm singing the blues

[00:00:22] I can see my reflection

[00:00:24] In the shine of your shoes

[00:00:27] Like momma used to say

[00:00:29] No news is good news

[00:00:31] And I'm back on the corner again

[00:00:37] Back on the corner

[00:00:38] Got my seeing-eye dog

[00:00:41] He's blind as justice

[00:00:43] And hungry as a hog

[00:00:46] I feel like a prince

[00:00:47] But I look like a frog

[00:00:50] And I'm back on the corner again

[00:00:55] Back on the corner

[00:00:56] Pitching pennies and dimes

[00:00:59] Hell I don't even know

[00:01:01] How I got here this time

[00:01:04] Singing for my supper at 12th street and vine

[00:01:09] Back on the corner again

[00:01:12] Used to take seven pills

[00:01:14] Just to get up in the morning

[00:01:17] From seven different doctors

[00:01:19] With seven different warnings

[00:01:22] I'd call 'em up to say I'm coming apart

[00:01:26] They'd say call us back when the fireworks start

[00:01:30] Well I lost my address

[00:01:33] I lost my wife

[00:01:35] I lost my children

[00:01:37] I lost my knife

[00:01:39] But if you trifle with me

[00:01:42] It's my life against your life

[00:01:45] Back on the corner again

[00:01:47] Back on

[00:02:08] Back on the corner

[00:02:09] Something's sticking in my craw

[00:02:11] How come everything I do

[00:02:13] Is up against the law

[00:02:16] You can't arrest a man can you

[00:02:18] For trying to break his own fall

[00:02:21] Back on the corner again

[00:02:26] Back on the corner

[00:02:27] Got a pidgeon for a friend

[00:02:30] He said he'd come to see me

[00:02:32] But he did not say when

[00:02:35] One of these days

[00:02:36] He's gonna fly back home and then

[00:02:39] Back on the corner again

[00:02:43] Every long drawn step it took to get me here

[00:02:48] Was full of best intentions

[00:02:50] Bright hopes and good cheer

[00:02:52] With dreams made out of silk

[00:02:54] Lined with silver and gold

[00:02:57] Too beautiful to mention

[00:02:59] Too heavy to ever hold

[00:03:01] Well I'm back on the corner

[00:03:04] With the pimps and the whores

[00:03:07] Least I know what they're standing here for

[00:03:11] She smiles tips me a dollar

[00:03:13] And I play her one more

[00:03:16] Back on the corner again

[00:03:20] Back on the corner again

[00:03:25] Back on the corner again
