《Simple Tools》歌词

[00:00:00] Simple Tools - Ry Cooder

[00:00:18] My wife used to say she couldn't understand

[00:00:28] Why I make my living working with my hands

[00:00:36] She met a junk bond daddy

[00:00:40] And he broke up my home

[00:00:45] He made his living on the telephone

[00:00:55] Daddy spied my darling

[00:00:59] Dialed her number then

[00:01:04] They took off next morning

[00:01:06] And she won't be back again

[00:01:12] I may not be good looking

[00:01:15] And I never been to school

[00:01:21] But I patched up my broken home

[00:01:25] Using simple tools

[00:01:30] Simple tools simple tools I like simple tools

[00:01:40] I'm just a common ordinary workaday fooi

[00:01:51] I might not be the brightest

[00:01:54] Bulb or the straightest mIe

[00:02:00] But I can mend my broken heart

[00:02:03] Using simple tools

[00:02:09] I can talk to girls in bars maybe a few

[00:02:19] We'B drink a Iittle glass

[00:02:21] Of wine or maybe two

[00:02:27] I might wake up in gay

[00:02:30] Paree or good old San Berdoo

[00:02:36] The gals appreciate a man

[00:02:41] That uses simple tools

[00:02:47] I won't be walking 'round

[00:02:48] All night wondel'in' what to do

[00:02:54] And I won't be calling up

[00:02:58] The morgue askin' for you

[00:03:04] Or beating down these memories

[00:03:09] With one of your old shoes

[00:03:13] I can do the job in half the time'

[00:03:17] Cause I use simple tools

[00:04:00] Simple tools simple tools I like simple tools

[00:04:10] I'm just a common ordinary workaday fooI

[00:04:20] I might not be the brightest bulb

[00:04:25] Or the straightest rule

[00:04:29] But I can do the job in half the time

[00:04:35] Using simple tools simple tools
