《Women ’Cross the River》歌词

[00:00:01] Women Cross The Rver - Linda Ronstadt

[00:00:10] Women 'cross the river

[00:00:12] Carry water from the well at break of day

[00:00:21] And they talk to one another

[00:00:24] God only knows what they might say

[00:00:32] You might get an education after years of dedication

[00:00:37] You might finally get a glimpse

[00:00:40] Of what is right and what is wrong

[00:00:48] But the women 'cross the river

[00:00:52] Well they knew that all along

[00:01:00] Oh the women 'cross the river

[00:01:02] Work with tools that are ancient and hand made

[00:01:11] And they plow their fields in perfect rows

[00:01:13] And then they rest beneath the shade

[00:01:22] Now we have learned to build out of concrete out of steel

[00:01:27] And our buildings stand a thousand years

[00:01:31] But then even they are bound to fall

[00:01:39] But the women 'cross the river

[00:01:41] Never learned to build a wall

[00:02:17] Oh the women 'cross the river

[00:02:20] Are as gentle as the dew upon the ground

[00:02:27] How I love to hear them laughing in the rain

[00:02:32] When it makes that perfect sound

[00:02:39] Now a soldier with a gun and a battle to be won

[00:02:44] Might kill you with a bullet

[00:02:47] And you never even know the reason why

[00:02:56] But the women 'cross the river

[00:03:00] They can kill you with their eyes

[00:03:06] Oh the women 'cross the river

[00:03:10] They can kill you with their eyes
