《Blue Collar》歌词

[00:00:00] Blue Collar - GilScott-Heron

[00:00:22] I been down in Pennsylvania

[00:00:26] Where I was working in the mine

[00:00:33] And I been down in Cincinnati

[00:00:37] They laid me off the assembly line

[00:00:43] Yeah they got me looking everywhere

[00:00:47] But I ain't too proud of what I found

[00:00:53] And you can't name where I ain't been down

[00:00:58] 'Cause there ain't no place I ain't been down

[00:01:05] I was down in Kansas City

[00:01:08] Where even the blues sell by the pound

[00:01:15] And I been down in New York City brother

[00:01:19] And that ain't no place to be down

[00:01:26] Yeah I'm a-looking at the face of the children

[00:01:29] You see we're looking for a higher ground

[00:01:35] And you can't name where we ain't been down

[00:01:40] 'Cause there ain't no place we ain't been down

[00:01:46] We fell down somewhere

[00:01:51] Between the cities and the towns

[00:01:57] We went down I know

[00:02:02] Between the smiles and the frowns

[00:02:08] And if they call me in the morning

[00:02:12] I mean I'd recognize the sound

[00:02:17] 'Cause you can't name where we ain't been down

[00:02:23] There ain't no place we ain't been down

[00:03:12] Standing in the shadows

[00:03:16] It sho'nuff sure enough looks like rain

[00:03:22] I see the steel-gray clouds above me

[00:03:26] Yeah well the anguish and the pain

[00:03:33] Yeah I been looking everywhere for peace

[00:03:36] But I swear there just ain't none around

[00:03:42] But you can't name where I ain't been down

[00:03:47] 'Cause there ain't no place I ain't been down

[00:03:53] We been down

[00:03:57] Between the cities and the towns

[00:04:03] Yeah been down somewhere

[00:04:08] Between the smiles and the frowns

[00:04:15] And if they call me in the morning

[00:04:19] I mean I'd recognize the sound

[00:04:24] 'Cause you can't name where I ain't been down

[00:04:29] There ain't no place I ain't been down
