《Man in the Long Black Coat》歌词

[00:00:00] Man in the Long Black Coat - Nighthawks (夜鹰)

[00:00:10] Lyricist：Bob Dylan

[00:00:21] Composer：Bob Dylan

[00:00:31] Crickets are chirpin' the water is high

[00:00:36] There's a soft cotton dress on the line hangin' dry

[00:00:46] Window wide open African trees

[00:00:52] Bent over backwards from a hurricane breeze

[00:01:01] Not a word of goodbye not even a note

[00:01:06] She gone with the man in the long black coat

[00:01:16] Somebody seen him hangin' around

[00:01:21] At the old dance hall on the outskirts of town

[00:01:30] He looked into her eyes when she stopped him to ask

[00:01:35] If he wanted to dance he had a face like a mask

[00:01:45] Somebody said from the bible he'd quote

[00:01:50] There was dust on the man in the long black coat

[00:02:30] Preacher was talking there's a sermon he gave

[00:02:34] He said every man's conscience is vile and depraved

[00:02:41] You cannot depend on it to be your guide

[00:02:47] When it's you who must keep it all satisfied

[00:02:56] It ain't easy to swallow and it sticks in the throat

[00:03:02] She gave her heart to the man in the long black coat

[00:03:11] And I know mistakes in life some people say

[00:03:16] It is true sometimes you can see it that way

[00:03:22] People don't live or die people just float

[00:03:27] She would go with the man in the long black coat

[00:03:36] There's smoke on the water it's been there since June

[00:03:42] Tree trunks uprooted beneath the high crescent moon

[00:03:48] Feel the pulse and vibration and the rumbling force

[00:03:54] Somebody is out there beating on a dead horse

[00:04:03] She never said nothing there was nothing she wrote

[00:04:09] She'd gone with the man in the long black coat
