《The Days Of Pearly Spencer》歌词

[00:00:00] The Days Of Pearly Spencer (珀利·斯宾塞的日子) - David McWilliams

[00:00:07] Written by：David McWilliams

[00:00:15] A tenement a dirty street

[00:00:17] Walked and worn by shoeless feet

[00:00:19] Inside it's long and so complete

[00:00:22] Watched by a shivering sun

[00:00:25] Old eyes in a small child's face

[00:00:28] Watching as the shadows race

[00:00:29] Through walls and cracks and leave no trace

[00:00:32] And daylight's brightness shuns

[00:00:39] The days of pearly spencer

[00:00:48] The race is almost run

[00:00:54] Nose pressed hard on frosted glass

[00:00:56] Gazing as the swollen mass

[00:00:58] On concrete fields where grows no grass

[00:01:01] Stumbles blindly on

[00:01:04] Iron trees smother the air

[00:01:06] But withering they stand and stare

[00:01:08] Through eyes that neither know nor care

[00:01:11] Where the grass is gone

[00:01:17] The days of pearly spencer

[00:01:26] The race is almost run

[00:01:32] Pearly where's your milk white skin

[00:01:35] What's that stubble on your chin

[00:01:37] It's buried in the rot gut gin

[00:01:39] You played and lost not won

[00:01:42] You played a house that can't be beat

[00:01:45] Now look your head's bowed in defeat

[00:01:47] You walked too far along the street

[00:01:49] Where only rats can run

[00:01:56] The days of pearly spencer

[00:02:05] The race is almost run

[00:02:14] The days of pearly spencer

[00:02:23] The race is almost run
