《Dialogue: Bottles and Boxes》歌词

[00:00:00] Dialogue: Bottles and Boxes - Bobby Bare

[00:00:19] Bottles and boxes and ten miles a day

[00:00:23] He walks slowly making his rounds

[00:00:28] Picking up bottles and boxes and papers

[00:00:32] And anything else we'd throw down

[00:00:37] He's hump-backed and wrinkled but unlike Van Winkel

[00:00:41] He doesn't sleep his life away

[00:00:46] And he speaks so seldom that some of us wonder

[00:00:50] Just what the old man has to say

[00:00:55] Some folks laugh at him but he doesn't notice

[00:00:59] He goes right on bout his day

[00:01:04] Picking up bottles and boxes and papers

[00:01:08] And pieces of life thrown away

[00:01:19] Too big and tattered the clothes that he's gathered

[00:01:24] From boxes thrown into the street

[00:01:28] He hides from the rain under store building ownings

[00:01:32] And stays in a shade in the heat

[00:01:37] Sisters and mothers and daddys and brothers

[00:01:41] He has none as far as I know

[00:01:46] Just bottles and boxes they're his little Fort Knoxes

[00:01:50] But to us they're just somethin' to throw

[00:01:55] Some folks laugh at him but he doesn't notice

[00:01:59] He goes right on bout his day

[00:02:04] Living with bottles and boxes and papers

[00:02:08] And pieces of life thrown away

[00:02:19] Bottles and boxes and ten miles a day

[00:02:23] He walks slowly making his rounds

[00:02:28] Picking up bottles and boxes and papers

[00:02:32] And anything else we'd throw down
