《Magdalene Laundries》歌词

[00:00:00] Magdalene Laundries - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)
[00:00:14] I was an unmarried girl
[00:00:18] I'd just turned twenty-seven
[00:00:22] When they sent me to the sisters
[00:00:25] For the way men looked at me
[00:00:31] Branded as a jezebel
[00:00:33] I knew I was not bound for Heaven
[00:00:37] I'd be cast in shame
[00:00:40] Into the Magdalene laundries
[00:00:52] Most girls come here pregnant
[00:00:56] Some by their own fathers
[00:01:01] Bridget got that belly
[00:01:03] By her parish priest
[00:01:08] We're trying to get things white as snow
[00:01:12] All of us woe-begotten daughters
[00:01:15] In the streaming stains
[00:01:18] Of the Magdalene laundries
[00:01:26] Prostitutes and destitutes
[00:01:29] And temptresses like me--
[00:01:34] Fallen women--
[00:01:35] Sentenced into dreamless drudgery
[00:01:42] Why do they call this heartless place
[00:01:46] Our Lady of Charity
[00:01:49] Oh charity
[00:01:59] These bloodless brides of Jesus
[00:02:02] If they had just once glimpsed their groom
[00:02:05] Then they'd know and they'd drop the stones
[00:02:08] Concealed behind their rosaries
[00:02:16] They wilt the grass they walk upon
[00:02:19] They leech the light out of a room
[00:02:23] They'd like to drive us down the drain
[00:02:26] At the Magdalene laundries
[00:02:37] Peg O'Connell died today
[00:02:40] She was a cheeky girl
[00:02:42] A flirt
[00:02:43] They just stuffed her in a hole
[00:02:45] Surely to God you'd think at least some bells should ring
[00:02:54] One day I'm going to die here too
[00:02:57] And they'll plant me in the dirt
[00:03:01] Like some lame bulb
[00:03:03] That never blooms come any spring
[00:03:09] Oh come any spring
[00:03:17] No not any spring
[00:03:23] Not any spring
