《To Keep My Love Alive》歌词

[00:00:00] To Keep My Love Alive - Ella Fitzgerald (埃拉·菲茨杰拉德)

[00:00:05] I've been married and married

[00:00:08] And often I've sighed

[00:00:12] "I'm never a bridesmaid I'm always a bride"

[00:00:19] I never divorced them I hadn't the heart

[00:00:25] Yet remember these sweet words

[00:00:30] ''till death do us part"

[00:00:44] I married many men a ton of them

[00:00:49] Because I was untrue to none of them

[00:00:53] Because I bumped off every one of them

[00:00:58] To keep my love alive

[00:01:02] Sir Paul was frail he looked a wreck to me

[00:01:07] At night he was a horse's neck to me

[00:01:11] So I performed an appendectomy

[00:01:15] To keep my love alive

[00:01:20] Sir Thomas had insomnia

[00:01:24] He couldn't sleep at night

[00:01:29] I bought a little arsenic

[00:01:33] He's sleeping now all right

[00:01:38] Sir Philip played the harp

[00:01:40] I cussed the thing

[00:01:42] I crowned him with his harp

[00:01:44] To bust the thing

[00:01:46] And now he plays

[00:01:48] Where harps are just the thing

[00:01:51] To keep my love alive

[00:01:55] To keep my love alive

[00:02:09] I thought Sir George had possibilities

[00:02:13] But his flirtations made me ill at ease

[00:02:17] And when I'm ill at ease I kill at ease

[00:02:22] To keep my love alive

[00:02:26] Sir Charles came from a sanitorium

[00:02:30] And yelled for drinks in my emporium

[00:02:35] I mixed one drink he's in memorium

[00:02:39] To keep my love alive

[00:02:44] Sir Francis was a singing bird

[00:02:48] A nightingale that's why

[00:02:52] I tossed him off my balcony

[00:02:57] To see if he could fly

[00:03:01] Sir Atherton indulged in fratricide

[00:03:06] He killed his dad and that was patricide

[00:03:10] One night I stabbed him by my mattress-side

[00:03:14] To keep my love alive

[00:03:19] To keep my love alive

[00:03:23] To keep my love alive
