《The Train from Washington》歌词

[00:00:00] The Train from Washington - Gil Scott-Heron (吉尔·斯科特·赛壬)
[00:00:02] During reconstruction time they were folks
[00:00:03] Who have been promised 40 acres and a mule
[00:00:06] And they were told a man with their legal papers
[00:00:08] Could be expected on a train from Washington
[00:00:11] They were folks who waited for him
[00:00:13] And there are folks still waiting for him
[00:00:16] To can't depend on the train from Washington
[00:00:18] It's 100 years overdue
[00:00:34] You can depend on the stars and planets yeah
[00:00:38] They'll always tell you the truth
[00:00:42] You can depend on the 15th of April yeah
[00:00:46] Somehow it always gets through
[00:00:50] You can depend on the daily paper's calls
[00:00:54] They surely bring you the blues

[00:01:12] Anxious near the tracks
[00:01:14] I see people a long long way from home
[00:01:18] Wondering how they'll ever get back
[00:01:23] You can depend on the politicians yeah
[00:01:27] Always got a point of view
[00:01:32] They are contemporary court magicians yeah

[00:01:55] I see people on their way to work
[00:01:59] I see factories bursting at the seams
[00:02:03] I see people listening for the whistle
[00:02:07] On the train that will carry their dreams
[00:02:44] I see people on their way to work
[00:02:48] I see factories bursting at the seams
[00:02:52] I see people listening for the whistle
[00:02:56] On the train that will carry their dreams
[00:03:01] You can depend on the folks and gravity
[00:03:05] 'Cuz both of them will bring you down
[00:03:09] You can depend on catching something yeah
[00:03:13] Something is going around
