《Beale Street Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Beale Street Blues (比尔街的蓝调) - The Dixieland Jazz Group/Lena Horne (莲纳·荷恩)

[00:00:00] I've seen the lights of gay Broadway

[00:00:09] Old Market Street down by the Frisco Bay

[00:00:17] I've strolled the Prado

[00:00:20] I've gambled on the Bourse

[00:00:27] The seven wonders of the world I've seen

[00:00:35] And many are the places I have been

[00:00:43] Take my advice folks

[00:00:46] And visit Beale Street first

[00:00:52] You'll see pretty browns in beautiful gowns

[00:00:56] You'll see tailor-mades and hand-me-downs

[00:01:01] You'll meet honest men

[00:01:03] And pick-pockets skilled

[00:01:05] You'll find that business never ceases

[00:01:07] 'Til somebody gets killed

[00:01:09] If Beale Street could talk

[00:01:11] If Beale Street could talk

[00:01:13] Married men would have to take their beds and walk

[00:01:18] Except one or two who never drink booze

[00:01:22] And the blind man on the corner singing

[00:01:25] "Beale Street Blues"

[00:01:44] I'd rather be there than any place I know

[00:01:53] I'd rather be there than any place I know

[00:02:02] It's gonna take a sergeant for to make me go

[00:02:11] I'm goin' to the river maybe by and by

[00:02:19] Yes I'm goin' to the river maybe by and by

[00:02:29] Because the river's wet

[00:02:31] And Beale Street's done gone dry
