《Drunken Boat》歌词

[00:00:00] Drunken Boat - The Pogues

[00:00:57] The wind was whipping shingle through the windows in the town

[00:01:02] A hail of stones across the roof the slates came raining down

[00:01:07] A blade of light upon the spit came sweeping through the roar

[00:01:12] With me head inise a barrel and me leg screwed in the floor

[00:01:18] Mother pack me bags because I＇m off to foreign parts

[00:01:23] Don＇t ask me where I＇m going ＇cause I＇m sure it＇s off the charts

[00:01:29] I＇ll pin your likeness on the wall right buy my sleeping head

[00:01:34] I＇ll send you cards and letters so you＇ll know that I＇m not dead

[00:01:40] By this time in a week I should be far away from home

[00:01:45] Trailing fingers through the phospor or asleep in flowers of foam

[00:01:50] From Macao to Acapulco from Havana to Seville

[00:01:56] We＇ll see monoliths and bridges and the Christ up on the hill

[00:02:01] An aria with the Russians at the piano in the bar

[00:02:07] With icefloes through the window we raised glasses to the Czar

[00:02:12] We squared off on a dockside with a coupled hundred Finns

[00:02:17] And we dallied in the ＇dilly and we stoaked ourselves in gin

[00:02:23] Now the only deck I＇d want to walk

[00:02:28] Are the stalks of corn beneath my feet

[00:02:34] And the only sea I want to sail

[00:02:39] Is the darkned pond in the scented dusk

[00:02:42] Where a kid crouced full of sadness

[00:02:45] Lets his boat go drifting out

[00:02:47] Into the evening sun

[00:03:09] We sailed through constellations and were rutted by the storm

[00:03:14] I crumpled under cudgel blows and finally came ashore

[00:03:19] I spent the next two years or more just staring at the wall

[00:03:25] We went to sea to see the world and what d＇you think we saw

[00:03:30] If we turned the table upside down and sailed around the bed

[00:03:36] Clamped knives between our teeth and tied bandannas round our heads

[00:03:41] With the wainscot our horizon and the ceiling as the sky

[00:03:47] You＇d not expect that anyone would go and f**king die

[00:03:52] Now the only deck I＇d want to walk

[00:03:57] Are the stalks of corn beneath my feet

[00:04:03] And the only sea I want to sail

[00:04:09] Is the darkned pond in the scented dusk

[00:04:11] Where a kid crouced full of sadness

[00:04:14] Lets his boat go drifting out

[00:04:16] Into the evening sun

[00:04:24] At nights we passed the bottle round and drank to our lost friends

[00:04:29] We lay alone upon our bunks and prayed that this would end

[00:04:35] A wall of moving shadows with rows of swinging keys

[00:04:40] We dreamed that whole Leviathans lay rotting in the weeds

[00:04:46] There＇s a sound that comes from miles away if you lean your head to hear

[00:04:51] A ship＇s bell rings on board a wreck where the air is still and clear

[00:04:57] And up in heaven that means another angel＇s got his wings

[00:05:02] But all below it signifies is a ship＇s gone in the drink

[00:05:07] Now the only deck I＇d want to walk

[00:05:13] Are the stalks of corn beneath my feet

[00:05:18] And the only sea I want to sail

[00:05:24] Is the darkned pond in the scented dusk

[00:05:27] Where a kid crouced full of sadness

[00:05:30] Lets his boat go drifting out

[00:05:32] Into the evening sun
