《Baton Rouge》歌词

[00:00:00] When I think of you

[00:00:03] Baton rouge

[00:00:05] I think of a mariachi band

[00:00:10] I think of sixteen

[00:00:12] And a crisp green football field

[00:00:16] I think of a girl

[00:00:17] I never had

[00:00:20] When I think of you

[00:00:22] Baton rouge

[00:00:24] I think of a back seat in a car

[00:00:30] Windows are foggy so are we

[00:00:35] As the police asked for our ID

[00:00:39] So helpless

[00:00:42] So helpless

[00:00:43] Ooohhh

[00:00:45] Ooohhh

[00:00:46] So helpless

[00:00:49] Ooohhh

[00:00:51] So helpless

[00:00:54] Ooohhh

[00:00:56] So helpless

[00:00:58] So helpless

[00:01:01] Well I once had a car

[00:01:03] Lost it in a divorce

[00:01:06] The judge was a woman

[00:01:09] Of course

[00:01:11] She said give her the car

[00:01:12] And the house and your taste

[00:01:16] Or else

[00:01:18] I set the trial date

[00:01:20] So now when I think of you

[00:01:23] Baton rouge

[00:01:25] And the deep southern belles

[00:01:28] With their touch

[00:01:29] I wonder where love ends

[00:01:32] And hate starts to blush

[00:01:34] In the fields in the swamps in the rush

[00:01:39] In the terra cotta

[00:01:40] Cobwebs of your mind

[00:01:43] When did you start seeing

[00:01:44] Me as a spider spinning web

[00:01:48] Of malicious intent and you as poor

[00:01:50] Poor me

[00:01:51] At the fire at the joint

[00:01:52] This disinterred and broken mount

[00:01:54] In the bedroom in the

[00:01:55] House where we were unmarried

[00:01:59] So helpless so helpless

[00:02:04] So helpless

[00:02:09] So helpless so helpless

[00:02:13] So helpless

[00:02:16] When was I the villain in your heart

[00:02:21] Putting the brake on your start

[00:02:26] You slapped my face and cried and screamed

[00:02:32] Thats what marriage came to mean

[00:02:35] The bitterest ending of a dream

[00:02:40] You wanted children and I did not

[00:02:45] Was that what it was all about

[00:02:49] You might get a laugh when you hear me shout

[00:02:54] You might get a laugh when you hear me shout

[00:02:58] I wish I had

[00:03:01] So helpless so helpless

[00:03:05] So helpless

[00:03:10] So helpless so helpless

[00:03:14] So helpless

[00:03:18] Sometimes when

[00:03:19] I think of baton rouge

[00:03:23] I see us with two

[00:03:24] And a half strapping sons

[00:03:28] One and a half flushed

[00:03:29] Daughters preparing to marry

[00:03:32] And two fat grandsons I can barely carry

[00:03:37] Daddy uncle

[00:03:38] Family gathered there for grace

[00:03:42] A dog in a barbecue pit goes up in space

[00:03:46] The dream recedes

[00:03:47] In the morning with a bad aftertaste

[00:03:50] And I'm back in the big city

[00:03:52] Worn from the race of the chase

[00:03:53] What a waste

[00:03:55] So thanks for the card

[00:03:58] The announcement of child

[00:04:00] And I must say you

[00:04:01] And sam look great

[00:04:04] Your daughters gleaming in that

[00:04:06] White wedding dress with pride

[00:04:08] Sad to say

[00:04:10] I could never bring

[00:04:10] That to you that wide smile

[00:04:13] So I try not to think of baton rouge

[00:04:17] Or of a of a of a mariachi band

[00:04:22] Or of sixteen and

[00:04:23] A crisp green football field

[00:04:27] And the girl and the girl I never had

[00:04:33] So helpless so helpless

[00:04:38] So helpless

[00:04:42] So helpless so helpless

[00:04:47] So helpless
