《Man in the Long Black Coat》歌词

[00:00:00] Man In The Long Black Coat - Mark Lanegan

[00:00:24] Crickets are chirpin' the water is high

[00:00:28] There's a soft cotton dress on the line hangin' dry

[00:00:33] Windows wide open African trees

[00:00:38] Are bent over backwards from a hurricane breeze

[00:00:47] Not a word of goodbye not even a note

[00:00:52] She gone with the man in the long black coat

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

[00:01:05] At the old dance hall on the outskirts of town

[00:01:10] He looked into her eyes when she stopped him to ask

[00:01:15] If he wanted to dance he had a face like a mask

[00:01:24] Somebody said from the Bible he'd quote

[00:01:29] There was dust on the man in the long black coat

[00:01:43] Preacher was talking there's a sermon he gave

[00:01:47] He said every man's conscience is vile and depraved

[00:01:52] You cannot depend on it to be your guide

[00:01:57] When it's you who must keep it satisfied

[00:02:06] It ain't easy to swallow it sticks in the throat

[00:02:11] She gave her heart to the man in the long black coat

[00:02:20] There are no mistakes in life some people say

[00:02:24] It is true sometimes you can see it that way

[00:02:29] But people don't live or die people just float

[00:02:34] She went with the man in the long black coat

[00:02:43] There's smoke on the water it's been there since June

[00:02:48] Tree trunks uprooted beneath the high crescent moon

[00:02:52] Feel the pulse and vibration and the rumbling force

[00:02:57] Somebody is out there beating on a dead horse

[00:03:06] She never said nothing there was nothing she wrote

[00:03:11] She gone with the man in the long black coata
