《Backwater Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Backwater Blues - Bessie Smith (贝西·史密斯)

[00:00:04] When it rains five days and the skies turn dark as night

[00:00:14] When it rains five days and the skies turn dark as night

[00:00:23] Then trouble's takin' place in the lowlands at night

[00:00:33] I woke up this mornin' can't even get out of my door

[00:00:42] I woke up this mornin' can't even get out of my door

[00:00:52] There's been enough trouble to

[00:00:54] Make a poor girl wonder where she want to go

[00:01:01] Then they rowed a little boat

[00:01:03] About five miles 'cross the pond

[00:01:09] Then they rowed a little boat

[00:01:12] About five miles 'cross the pond

[00:01:19] I packed all my clothes throwed

[00:01:21] Them in and they rowed me along

[00:01:28] When it thunders and lightnin'

[00:01:30] And when the wind begins to blow

[00:01:37] When it thunders and lightnin'

[00:01:39] And the wind begins to blow

[00:01:46] There's thousands of people ain't got no place to go

[00:01:54] Then I went and stood upon

[00:01:57] Some high old lonesome hill

[00:02:03] Then I went and stood upon

[00:02:06] Some high old lonesome hill

[00:02:12] Then looked down on the house

[00:02:16] Were I used to live

[00:02:21] Backwater blues done call me to

[00:02:25] Pack my things and go

[00:02:30] Backwater blues done call me to

[00:02:34] Pack my things and go

[00:02:40] 'Cause my house fell down and

[00:02:42] I can't live there no more

[00:02:49] Mmm I can't move no more

[00:02:58] Mmm I can't move no more

[00:03:07] There ain't no place for a poor old girl to go
