《Lord Tell Me Why》歌词

[00:00:00] Lord Tell Me Why - Ry Cooder

[00:00:10] Lord tell me why a white man ain't

[00:00:16] Worth nothing in this world no more

[00:00:20] Lord tell me how you 'spect

[00:00:25] Me to stand up tall and proud

[00:00:29] I did just what you told

[00:00:32] I done everything you said

[00:00:34] But the way I'm doing lately

[00:00:36] I could have stood in bed

[00:00:39] So Lord tell me why a white man

[00:00:44] Ain't worth nothing in this world no more

[00:00:54] Lord tell me when a

[00:00:58] White man's gonna be all right again

[00:01:03] Please fix it Lord they took back

[00:01:09] Everything we been working for

[00:01:12] When the riots tore our city

[00:01:15] I stood watch outside our home

[00:01:17] My kids crying daddy

[00:01:19] Why can't they leave us alone

[00:01:22] Split level in Valencia

[00:01:25] Where the cops reside

[00:01:26] We had to walk away

[00:01:28] And leave old memories inside

[00:01:32] Lord tell me why a

[00:01:36] White man ain't worth nothing

[00:01:38] In this world no more

[00:02:00] You can walk across the silvery moon

[00:02:03] And get back home all right

[00:02:05] But it ain't safe to walk the streets

[00:02:07] Of your home town at night

[00:02:09] I'm a Lord man from the Lord land

[00:02:12] But a Lord man ain't worth

[00:02:13] Nothing in this world no more
