《The Cold Hard Facts of Life》歌词

[00:00:00] The Cold Hard Facts of Life - Bill Anderson (比尔·安德森)

[00:00:08] I got back in town

[00:00:11] A day before I'd planned to

[00:00:17] I smiled and said

[00:00:19] I'll sure surprise my wife

[00:00:26] I don't think I'll phone

[00:00:30] I'll just head on home

[00:00:34] For I didn't know

[00:00:36] The cold hard facts of life

[00:00:42] I passed a little wine store on the corner

[00:00:51] I pictured pink champagne by candle light

[00:00:59] I stopped the car right then

[00:01:03] Got out and hurried in

[00:01:07] My mind not on the cold hard facts of life

[00:01:16] A stranger stood

[00:01:18] There laughing by the counter

[00:01:24] He said I'll take two bottles of your best

[00:01:33] Her husband's out of town

[00:01:37] And there's a party

[00:01:41] He winked as if to say

[00:01:45] You know the rest

[00:01:50] I left the store two steps behind the stranger

[00:01:58] From there to my house his car stayed in sight

[00:02:06] But it wasn't till

[00:02:09] He turned into my drive I learned

[00:02:15] I was witnessing

[00:02:17] The cold hard facts of life

[00:02:23] I drove around

[00:02:25] The block till I was dizzy

[00:02:32] Each time the noise came louder from within

[00:02:40] And then I saw our bottle there beside me

[00:02:48] And I drank a fifth

[00:02:51] Of courage and walked in

[00:02:58] Oh you should have seen their frantic faces

[00:03:06] They screamed

[00:03:07] And cried please put away that knife

[00:03:14] I guess I'll go to hell

[00:03:17] Or rot here in the cell

[00:03:22] But who told

[00:03:23] Who the cold hard facts of life

[00:03:31] Who told

[00:03:32] Who the cold hard facts of life
