《The King Of Oak Street》歌词

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

[00:00:01] Written by：Alex Harvey

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

[00:00:24] With no purpose or direction too his life

[00:00:35] He tried to get himself together and pacify his mind

[00:00:48] And forget about the things he left behind

[00:00:59] The cryin' woman helpless standing in his door

[00:01:12] With a two month old baby in her arms

[00:01:23] His little black book laying torn up on the floor

[00:01:36] And God only knows he never meant to do her wrong

[00:01:48] A careless weekend on the other side of town

[00:02:01] Has torn the king of oak street's castle down

[00:02:13] And all week long he's tried to call her but she won't let him explain

[00:02:25] Now Sunday morning finds him walking in the rain

[00:02:38] He sits down in a phone booth and he prays

[00:02:49] That she'll forgive him and she'll believe he's changed his ways

[00:03:02] With shaking hand he deposits his last dime

[00:03:14] And he's still praying that she won't hang up this time

[00:03:27] Then the sweetest voice he's ever heard says hello

[00:03:40] Breakfast's almost ready baby come on home

[00:03:52] I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand

[00:04:04] That the king of oak street is just an ordinary man

[00:04:15] I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand

[00:04:29] That the king of oak street is just an ordinary man
