《The Late John Garfield Blues(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Late John Garfield Blues (LP版) - John Prine

[00:00:00] Black faces pressed against the glass

[00:00:06] Where rain has pressed its weight

[00:00:12] Wind blown scarves in top down cars

[00:00:17] All share one western trait

[00:00:23] Sadness leaks through tear stained cheeks

[00:00:28] From winos to dime store Jews

[00:00:34] Probably don't know they give me

[00:00:39] These late john Garfield blues

[00:00:49] Midnight fell on Franklin street

[00:00:54] And the lamppost bulbs were broke

[00:00:59] For the life of me I could not see

[00:01:05] But I heard a brand new joke

[00:01:10] Two men were standing upon a bridge

[00:01:16] One jumped and screamed you lose

[00:01:22] And just left the odd man holding

[00:01:27] Those late john Garfield blues

[00:01:36] An old man sleeps with his conscience at night

[00:01:42] Young kids sleep with their dreams

[00:01:47] While the mentally ill sit perfectly still

[00:01:52] And live through life's in bet weens

[00:02:00] I'm going away to the last resort

[00:02:06] In week or two real soon

[00:02:12] Where the fish don't bite but once a night

[00:02:17] By the cold light of the moon

[00:02:23] The horses scream the nightmares dream

[00:02:28] And the dead men all wear shoes

[00:02:34] 'Cause everybody's dancing

[00:02:39] Those late john Garfield blues
