《Sing Sing Prison Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Sing Sing Prison Blues - Bessie Smith (贝西·史密斯)

[00:00:02] Gonna journey up the Hudson

[00:00:07] Goin' on a lonesome trail

[00:00:15] Gonna journey up the Hudson

[00:00:19] Goin' on a lonesome trail

[00:00:27] They can put me in the Death House

[00:00:31] Or keep me in the Sing Sing Jail

[00:00:40] I wrote and asked the warden

[00:00:43] Why they called the jail the Sing Sing

[00:00:52] I wrote and asked the warden

[00:00:56] Why the called the jail the Sing Sing

[00:01:04] He said "Stand here by this rock pile

[00:01:08] And listen to them hammers ring"

[00:01:16] He turns in the court house

[00:01:20] Papers sellin' for fifty cents

[00:01:28] He turns in the court house

[00:01:32] Papers sellin' for fifty cents

[00:01:39] All the judge tryin' to tell me

[00:01:43] My lawyer's pleadin' self defense

[00:01:52] The judge said “Listen Bessie

[00:01:55] Tell me why you killed your man”

[00:02:04] The judge said “Listen Bessie

[00:02:07] Tell me why you killed your man”

[00:02:16] I said “Judge you ain't no woman

[00:02:19] And you can't understand”

[00:02:27] You can send me up the river

[00:02:31] Or send me to that mean old jail

[00:02:39] You can send me up the river

[00:02:42] Or send me to that mean old jail

[00:02:51] I killed my man and I don't need no bail
