《Mexicali Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Mexicali Blues (墨西卡利蓝调) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)

[00:00:17] Laid back in an old saloon with a peso in my hand

[00:00:21] Watchin' flies and children on the street

[00:00:24] And I catch a glimpse of black-eyed girls who giggle when I smile

[00:00:29] There's a little boy who wants to shine my feet

[00:00:33] And it's three days ride from Bakersfield

[00:00:35] And I don't know why I came

[00:00:37] I guess I came to keep from payin' dues

[00:00:41] So instead I've got a bottle

[00:00:43] And a girl who's just fourteen

[00:00:45] And a damn good case of the Mexicali Blues yeah

[00:00:50] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:00:54] When the devil wants to take it all away

[00:00:58] Cherish well your thoughts

[00:00:59] And keep a tight grip on your booze

[00:01:02] 'Cause thinkin' and drinkin' are all I have today

[00:01:23] She said her name was Billy Jean

[00:01:25] And she was fresh in town

[00:01:27] I didn't know a stage line ran from hell

[00:01:31] She had raven hair a ruffled

[00:01:32] Dress a necklace made of gold

[00:01:35] All the French perfume you'd care to smell

[00:01:39] She took me up into her room

[00:01:41] And whispered in my ear

[00:01:43] Go on my friend do anything you choose

[00:01:48] Now I'm payin' for those happy hours

[00:01:49] I spent there in her arms

[00:01:52] With a lifetime's worth of the Mexicali Blues yeah

[00:01:56] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:02:00] When the devil wants to blow it all away

[00:02:05] Cherish well your thoughts

[00:02:06] And keep a tight grip on your booze

[00:02:08] 'Cause thinkin' and drinkin' are all I have today

[00:02:30] And then a man rode into town

[00:02:31] Some thought he was the law

[00:02:33] Billy Jean was waitin' when he came

[00:02:37] She told me he would take her

[00:02:39] If I didn't use my gun

[00:02:42] I'd have no one but myself to blame

[00:02:46] I went down to those dusty streets

[00:02:48] Blood was on my mind

[00:02:50] I guess that stranger hadn't heard the news

[00:02:54] 'Cause I shot first and killed him Lord

[00:02:56] He didn't even draw

[00:02:58] And he made me trade the gallows

[00:03:00] For the Mexicali Blues yeah

[00:03:03] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:03:07] When he lets a woman hold him in her hands

[00:03:11] He just might find himself out there

[00:03:13] On horseback in the dark

[00:03:15] Just ridin' and runnin' across those desert sands
