《The King Of Oak Street》歌词

[00:00:00] The King Of Oak Street - Kenny Rogers (肯尼·罗杰斯)

[00:00:12] Like a leaf caught in the wind he drifted a while

[00:00:21] With no purpose or direction to his life

[00:00:31] He tried to get himself together and pacify his mind

[00:00:42] And forget about the things he left behind

[00:00:51] The cryin' woman standing helpless in his door

[00:01:01] With a two month old baby in her arms

[00:01:11] His little black book laying torn up on the floor

[00:01:20] And God only knows he never meant to do her wrong

[00:01:30] A careless weekend on the other side of town

[00:01:40] Has torn the king of Oak Street's Castle down

[00:01:49] And all week long he's tried to call her but she won't let him explain

[00:02:00] Now Sunday morning finds him walking in the rain

[00:02:10] He sits down in a phone booth and he prays

[00:02:19] That she'll forgive him and she'll believe he's changed his ways

[00:02:29] With shaking hand he deposits his last dime

[00:02:38] And he's still praying that she won't hang up this time

[00:02:49] Then the sweetest voice he's ever heard says hello

[00:02:59] Breakfast's almost ready baby come on home

[00:03:08] I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand

[00:03:19] That the king of Oak Street is just an ordinary man

[00:03:27] I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand

[00:03:36] That the king of Oak Street is just an ordinary man
