《God’s Song (That’s Why I Love Mankind)》歌词

[00:00:00] God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind) - Etta James (埃塔·詹姆斯)

[00:00:10] Cain slew Abel Seth knew not why

[00:00:18] For if the children of Israel

[00:00:22] Were to multiply

[00:00:26] Why must any of the children

[00:00:31] Why must they die?

[00:00:34] So he asked and the Lord

[00:00:37] And the Lord said

[00:00:42] Man means nothing

[00:00:47] He means less to me

[00:00:52] Than the lowliest cactus flower

[00:00:55] Or the humblest yucca tree

[00:01:00] Chases 'round this desert

[00:01:03] 'Cause he thinks that's

[00:01:04] Where I'll be

[00:01:07] That's why I love mankind

[00:01:15] I recoil in horror from the foulness of Thee

[00:01:24] From the squalor and the filth and the misery

[00:01:32] How we laugh up here in heaven

[00:01:36] At the prayers you offer me

[00:01:40] That's why I love mankind

[00:01:53] The Christians and the Jews

[00:01:55] Were having a jamboree

[00:02:00] The Buddhists and the Hindus

[00:02:04] The Buddhists and the Hindus

[00:02:05] Joined on satellite TV

[00:02:08] Picked their four greatest priests

[00:02:12] And they began to speak

[00:02:14] And they said

[00:02:15] Lorda plague is on the world

[00:02:20] Lord, no man is free

[00:02:24] The temples that we built to you

[00:02:27] Have tumbled down

[00:02:29] Fell into the sea

[00:02:31] Lord, if you won't take care of us

[00:02:35] Please, please let us be?

[00:02:39] And the Lord said

[00:02:43] And the Lord said:

[00:02:48] I burn down your cities

[00:02:52] How blind you must be

[00:02:56] I take you your children

[00:03:00] And you say how blessed are we

[00:03:05] You must all be crazy to

[00:03:09] Put your faith in me

[00:03:12] That's why I love mankind

[00:03:18] You really need me

[00:03:21] That's why love I love mankind
