《Counterfeiters’ Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Counterfeiters' Blues - Corb Lund

[00:00:27] He said drink deeply of the wine

[00:00:29] My friend breathe fully in the smoke

[00:00:32] Eat the fish that he conjured

[00:00:34] This is the bread that jesus broke

[00:00:37] This is grape juice and cheap vodka

[00:00:39] Man this isn't even wine

[00:00:42] I'm smokin shredded cardboard

[00:00:45] Eating sawdust baked with lime

[00:00:47] This is not the truth you tell me

[00:00:49] But some terrible evil joke

[00:00:52] Sounds to me like the counterfeit blues have got you by the throat

[00:01:01] There seem to me an awful lot of charltans round here

[00:01:06] Hustlers cheats and anglers fixers sharps and mutineers

[00:01:11] The factory and subterfuge and corporato cheat

[00:01:16] Conspire to fast reduce us to the stamping of our feet

[00:01:20] The lords of mass producto mass product at quite a pace

[00:01:25] It won't be long these counterfeit blues'll run the whole damn place

[00:02:08] These notes that you've been paying with are a little bit too green

[00:02:13] The printing's off the ink has got a polyester sheen

[00:02:18] Your bill has grown too large and now you'll have to work it off

[00:02:23] And your snout will have to make its way

[00:02:25] From the far end of the trough

[00:02:27] You got suckered into trying to make your money overnight

[00:02:33] Looks to me like the counterfeit blues

[00:02:35] Will be doggin you all of your life

[00:02:46] The worn out western had i got no longer smells like horse

[00:02:51] I can't afford to keep one around

[00:02:53] Now that rooster's gone of course

[00:02:56] I guess i've left it all behind me now

[00:02:59] Except for when i write

[00:03:01] And sing ancestral praises of the ones who knew that life

[00:03:06] Yes years of rocka rolla have extracted quite a fee

[00:03:12] Maybe them old counterfeit blues have been creepin up on me
