《Shanty Man’s Life(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Shanty Man's Life - Dave Van Ronk

[00:00:06] A shanty man's life is a wearisome one

[00:00:14] Though some say it's free from care

[00:00:22] It's the swinging of an axe from morning 'til night

[00:00:30] In the forest wild and drear

[00:00:38] Transported as we are from a lady so fair

[00:00:45] To the banks of some lonely stream

[00:00:53] Where the wolf bear and owl

[00:00:57] Give a terrifying howl and disturb our nightly dreams

[00:01:09] Oh sleeping at night in our bunks without cheer

[00:01:17] While the cold winter winds do blow

[00:01:24] But as soon as the morning star does appear

[00:01:32] To the wild woods we must go

[00:01:40] Had we ale wine or beer our spirits far to cheer

[00:01:48] When we're in those woods so wild

[00:01:55] Where a glass of whiskey shone

[00:01:59] While we're in the woods alone

[00:02:03] For to pass away our long exile

[00:02:44] A shanty man's life is a wearisome one

[00:02:51] Though some say it's free from care

[00:02:59] It's the swinging of an axe from morning 'til night

[00:03:06] In the forest wild and drear
