《Swann Song》歌词

[00:00:00] Swann Song - Chris Pureka

[00:00:19] Yeah I could tell you lots of things

[00:00:24] I grew up on the bay

[00:00:29] I used to race my sisters up the fence-side

[00:00:33] To Mr Medley's place

[00:00:39] Papa ran the general store

[00:00:41] And mama did everything

[00:00:42] And the waves and the waves and the sea

[00:00:48] Time brought me here like a fishing boat

[00:00:52] At the whim of the Atlantic breeze

[00:00:57] It was a good life

[00:01:00] Yeah it was a good life

[00:01:05] I'd do it all again

[00:01:11] I joined the Navy Nurses Corp

[00:01:21] It was 1941

[00:01:25] And I met my sailor in that fated harbor

[00:01:30] In the days before the bombs came

[00:01:36] Hail Mary I made it home

[00:01:39] 'Til I was laughing as my ship went down

[00:01:45] Singing and bailing water right back

[00:01:48] To the shores of San Francisco town

[00:01:54] It was a good life

[00:01:58] Yeah it was a good life

[00:02:03] I'd do it all again

[00:02:09] I was hitched out in Reno

[00:02:16] I stayed at home

[00:02:17] And he went out to sweep the mines

[00:02:23] I'll never forget the day

[00:02:25] We heard it on the radio

[00:02:28] It was the end of the war

[00:02:32] And we laughed and cried

[00:02:35] And cheered and laughed again

[00:02:41] Yeah we cried and cheered like it would be the last one

[00:03:23] Yeah sure yeah sure I've wished for things

[00:03:28] I wish I had been there the day that Nancy drowned

[00:03:32] I wish I hadn't seen them build a highway

[00:03:35] A highway right through my backyard

[00:03:42] But you just learn to love the little things

[00:03:46] I've lived long enough to know

[00:03:51] And I'm still waving from this front porch

[00:03:55] And this is still my swan song

[00:04:00] It was a good life

[00:04:04] It was a good life

[00:04:09] I'd do it all again

[00:04:14] I'd do it all again

[00:04:19] I'd do it all again

[00:04:25] Yeah
