《If Mao Could See Me Now》歌词

[00:00:00] If Mao Could See Me Now - Garland Jeffreys

[00:00:02] If Mao could see me now

[00:00:30] He'd be rollin' over in his grave

[00:00:33] See that I have become a man

[00:00:37] That I am no longer a slave

[00:00:42] Yes it's true I once was a child

[00:00:48] And I remember all those sleepless nights

[00:00:56] Naked orphans runnin' wild

[00:00:58] Bathe in the warmth under the streetlights

[00:01:05] Hometown boy he's makin' good now he's takin' a bow

[00:01:14] If Mao could see me now

[00:01:45] If Mao could see me now

[00:01:52] He'd see a smile upon my face

[00:01:58] Like a father he'd be so proud

[00:02:01] To know I've joined the human race

[00:02:05] And he would know it wasn't fake

[00:02:12] And he would know it was for real

[00:02:19] I got somethin' I can understand

[00:02:23] Now show me somethin' I can feel

[00:02:28] Hometown boy he's makin' good now he's takin' a bow

[00:02:38] If Mao could see me now

[00:02:44] If Mao could see me now

[00:03:11] He could see those tender tears

[00:03:18] And he would know the hurt and pain

[00:03:26] That I've been goin' through for years and years

[00:03:31] Workin' hard and tryna' be like you

[00:03:37] Thinkin' it would set me free

[00:03:42] But in my heart I know just what to do

[00:03:50] And now I'm gonna' be like like me

[00:03:52] Hometown boy he's makin' good now he's takin' a bow

[00:03:59] If Mao could see me now

[00:04:23] If Mao could see me now
