《Yakety Axe》歌词

[00:00:00] Yakety Axe - Mark Knopfler (马克·诺普弗勒)

[00:00:05] Poverty stricken but still

[00:00:07] I'm a-stickin' to the things I know to be facts

[00:00:10] One day it's feathers and the next day chicken

[00:00:13] While I'm pickin' my yakety axe

[00:00:15] Ev'rybody says that I never will get far

[00:00:18] Keepin' out of work by pickin' this guitar

[00:00:20] Livin' on a shoestring puttin' off things like a shave and a haircut

[00:00:25] Money don't matter as long as

[00:00:27] I scatter a little bit of happiness around

[00:00:30] If people keep a grinnin' I figure

[00:00:31] I'm a winnin' my good old yakety sound

[00:00:35] City folks go around turnin' up their noses and

[00:00:37] Countin' their greenbacks and smellin' their roses

[00:00:39] But I wouldn't trade my yakety axe even for a T-bone

[00:00:45] I'm confessin' I never took a lesson all my notes are a matter of guessin'

[00:00:50] Hopin' they'll come out in some kinda manner that'll make the yakety sound

[00:00:54] So if you're in the mood and your feet start tappin'

[00:00:57] And you feel laid back and your hands start clappin'

[00:00:59] Then I'll have done what I wanted to from way back

[00:01:02] You're diggin' my yakety axe
