《Ballad Of Spider John》歌词

[00:00:00] Ballad Of Spider John - Jimmy Buffett

[00:00:12] Spider john is my name friend

[00:00:16] I'm in between freights

[00:00:18] And I sure would be obliged

[00:00:21] If you'd share your company

[00:00:28] I know this may sound strange to you

[00:00:31] But if you wait till the song

[00:00:33] Is sung and the story is told

[00:00:37] You might come to understand

[00:00:43] Oh I'm old and bent

[00:00:45] And devil sent runnin' out of time

[00:00:51] When I long ago

[00:00:52] Held a royal flush in my hand

[00:00:58] Oh I was a supermarket fool

[00:01:02] I was a motor bank stool-pidgeon

[00:01:09] Robbin' my hometown

[00:01:15] I thought I lost my blues

[00:01:18] Yes I thought I paid my dues

[00:01:22] I thought I'd found a life to suit my style

[00:01:29] But here I sit old spider john the robber-man

[00:01:35] Long tall and handsome

[00:01:39] Yes old spider john with a loaded hand

[00:01:45] Takin' ransom

[00:01:54] Then one day I met diamond lill

[00:01:58] She was the sweetest thing

[00:02:00] I declareThat the summer

[00:02:02] Breeze had ever blown my way

[00:02:13] But lilly she had no idea

[00:02:17] Of my illustrious occupation

[00:02:21] She thought I was a saint

[00:02:23] Not a sinner gone astray

[00:02:31] But you know that

[00:02:33] The word got around and lilly left town

[00:02:37] And he never saw her again

[00:02:41] Tossin' and turnin' 'causin' my heart to grieve

[00:02:48] Oh I was a supermarket fool

[00:02:52] I was a motor bank stool-pidgeon

[00:02:58] Robbin' my hometown

[00:03:04] I thought I lost my blues

[00:03:07] Yes I thought I paid my dues

[00:03:11] I thought I'd found a life to suit my style

[00:03:18] And I was spider john the robber-man

[00:03:23] Long tall and handsome

[00:03:28] Yes I was spider john with a loaded hand

[00:03:34] Takin' ransom

[00:03:43] That is all my story

[00:03:47] It's been these thirty years

[00:03:49] Since I took to the road

[00:03:51] To find my precious jewel one

[00:03:58] And if you see my lilly

[00:04:01] Won't you give her my regards

[00:04:05] Tell her ole spider got tangled

[00:04:07] In the black web that he spun

[00:04:12] You can tell her that spider got tangled

[00:04:15] The black web that he spun
