《Pinchbacks-Take ’Em Away》歌词

[00:00:00] Pinchbacks-Take 'Em Away - Bessie Smith (贝西·史密斯)

[00:00:16] Girls I wanna tell you about these sweet men

[00:00:19] These men goin' around here tryin' to play cute

[00:00:23] I'm hard on you boys yes sir

[00:00:32] I fell in love with a sweet man once

[00:00:37] He said he loved me too

[00:00:41] He said if I'd run away with him

[00:00:45] What nice things he would do

[00:00:49] I'd travel around from town to town

[00:00:54] How happy I would feel

[00:00:57] But don't you know he would not work

[00:01:01] Girls take this tip from me

[00:01:05] Get a working man when you marry

[00:01:13] And let all these sweet men be

[00:01:20] Child it takes money to run a business

[00:01:27] And with me I know you girls will agree

[00:01:36] There's one thing about this married life

[00:01:43] That these young girls have got to know

[00:01:50] Say if a sweet man enter your front gate

[00:01:58] Turn out your light and lock your door

[00:02:06] Yes get a working man when you marry

[00:02:15] Let all these pinchbacks1 be

[00:02:20] Child it takes money to run a business

[00:02:28] And with me I know you girls will agree

[00:02:35] And if this panic stays on much longer

[00:02:44] I'll hear all these young girls say

[00:02:50] That it's a long way to Oklahoma

[00:02:58] But these little pinchbacks take them away
