《Blind Willie Harper》歌词

[00:00:00] Blind Willie Harper - Bobby Bare

[00:00:07] On a stone cold night in Memphis

[00:00:10] Willie Harper came to town

[00:00:14] With a blue tick hound at his heels

[00:00:17] And a dime in his shoe

[00:00:21] Uh he could make that guitar sing

[00:00:25] You should have heard that pavement ring

[00:00:29] When Blind Willie Harper played the blues

[00:00:35] And he'd sing hey Jenny

[00:00:39] Why'd you go and leave me

[00:00:40] All alone in the dark this way

[00:00:44] Hey Jenny

[00:00:46] Why'd you go and leave me

[00:00:47] With these blind man dues to pay

[00:00:50] And these blues to play

[00:01:06] In the scarlet light of Beal Street

[00:01:10] Willie Harper found a home

[00:01:13] A any song you name he don't refuse

[00:01:21] Sweet or dirty

[00:01:23] White or black

[00:01:25] Just drop a nickel in the hat

[00:01:28] And hear Blind Willie Harper play the blues

[00:01:35] And he'd sing hey Jenny

[00:01:38] Why'd you go and leave me

[00:01:39] All alone in the dark this way

[00:01:43] Hey Jenny

[00:01:45] Why'd you go and leave me

[00:01:47] With these blind man dues to pay

[00:01:49] And these blues to play

[00:02:06] Willie stops in the middle of the song

[00:02:09] As a love dealing lady walks by

[00:02:12] He says a you smell sweet

[00:02:14] Like someone I once knew

[00:02:20] Then he touches her face

[00:02:21] And some words are said

[00:02:23] And a knife blade shines

[00:02:25] And her blood runs red

[00:02:28] Blind Willie walks off singing the blues

[00:02:35] On a stone cold night in Memphis

[00:02:38] They took Blind Willie down

[00:02:42] They shaved his head

[00:02:45] Took away his shoes

[00:02:50] Now from a window of a Beal Street jail cell

[00:02:54] Sad as a whipperwill clear as a bell

[00:02:57] We heard Blind Willie Harper singing the blues

[00:03:04] And he'd sing hey Jenny

[00:03:08] Why'd you go and leave me

[00:03:09] All alone in the dark this way

[00:03:13] Hey Jenny

[00:03:15] Why'd you go and leave me

[00:03:16] With these blind man dues to pay

[00:03:19] And these blues to play

[00:03:56] We heard Blind Willie Harper singing the blues
