《The Cape(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Cape - Guy Clark

[00:00:25] Eight years old with a flour sack cape tied all around his neck

[00:00:31] He climbed up on the garage

[00:00:33] He's figurin' what the heck

[00:00:36] He screwed his courage up so tight

[00:00:39] That the whole thing come unwound

[00:00:42] He got a runnin' start and bless his heart

[00:00:45] He's headed for the ground

[00:00:49] Well he's one of those who knows

[00:00:51] That life is just a leap of faith

[00:00:55] Spread your arms and hold your breath

[00:00:58] And always trust your cape

[00:01:14] Now he's all grown up with a flour sack

[00:01:16] Cape tied all around his dream

[00:01:20] And he's full of spit and vinegar

[00:01:22] And he's bustin' at the seam

[00:01:25] Well he licked his finger and he checked the

[00:01:28] Wind it's gonna be do or die

[00:01:32] And he wasn't scared of nothin' boys

[00:01:34] He was pretty sure he could fly

[00:01:39] Well he's one of those who knows

[00:01:41] That life is just a leap of faith

[00:01:45] Spread your arms and hold your breath

[00:01:47] And always trust your cape

[00:02:14] Now he's old and gray with a flour sack

[00:02:17] Cape tied all around his head

[00:02:21] And he's still jumpin' off the garage

[00:02:24] And will be till he's dead

[00:02:27] All these years the people said

[00:02:30] He was actin' like a kid

[00:02:32] He did not know he could not fly and so he did

[00:02:40] Well he's one of those who knows

[00:02:42] That life is just a leap of faith

[00:02:46] Spread your arms and hold your breath

[00:02:49] And always trust your cape

[00:02:51] Yes he's one of those who knows

[00:02:54] That life is just a leap of faith

[00:02:58] Spread your arms and hold your breath

[00:03:00] And always trust your cape

[00:03:03] Spread your arms and hold your breath

[00:03:06] And always trust your cape
