《Thousands Are Sailing》歌词

[00:00:00] Thousands Are Sailing - The Pogues
[00:00:21] The island it is silent now
[00:00:24] But the ghosts still haunt the waves
[00:00:28] And the torch lights up a famished man
[00:00:32] Who fortune could not save
[00:00:36] Did you work upon the railroad
[00:00:40] Did you rid the streets of crime
[00:00:44] Were your dollars from the white house
[00:00:48] Were they from the five and dime
[00:00:52] Did the old songs taunt or cheer you
[00:00:55] And did they still make you cry
[00:00:59] Did you count the months and years
[00:01:02] Or did your teardrops quickly dry
[00:01:07] Ah no says he towas not to be
[00:01:11] On a coffin ship I came here
[00:01:14] And I never even got so far
[00:01:18] That they could change my name
[00:01:22] Thousands are sailing
[00:01:26] Across the western ocean
[00:01:30] To a land of opportunity
[00:01:33] That some of them will never see
[00:01:37] Fortune prevailing
[00:01:41] Across the western ocean
[00:01:45] Their bellies full
[00:01:47] Spirits Their free
[00:01:49] They'll break the chains of poverty
[00:01:52] And they'll dance
[00:02:04] In Manhattan's desert twilight
[00:02:08] In the death of afternoon
[00:02:11] We stepped hand in hand on Broadway
[00:02:15] Like the first man on the moon
[00:02:19] And "The Blackbird" broke the silence
[00:02:23] As you whistled it so sweet
[00:02:27] And in Brendan Behan's footsteps
[00:02:31] I danced up and down the street
[00:02:35] Then we said goodnight to Broadway
[00:02:38] Giving it our best regards
[00:02:43] Tipped our hats to Mister Cohen
[00:02:46] Dear old Times Square's favorite bard
[00:02:50] Then we raised a glass to JFK
[00:02:54] And a dozen more besides
[00:02:58] When I got back to my empty room
[00:03:02] I suppose I must have cried
[00:03:06] Thousands are sailing
[00:03:10] Again across the ocean
[00:03:13] Where the hand of opportunity
[00:03:17] Draws tickets in a lottery
[00:03:21] Postcards we're mailing
[00:03:25] Of sky-blue skies and oceans
[00:03:29] From rooms the daylight never sees
[00:03:33] Where lights don't glow on Christmas trees
[00:03:36] But dance to the music
[00:03:38] And we dance
[00:04:14] Thousands are sailing
[00:04:17] Across the western ocean
[00:04:21] Where the hand of opportunity
[00:04:25] Draws tickets in a lottery
[00:04:29] Where'er we go we celebrate
[00:04:33] The land that makes us refugees
[00:04:36] From fear of Priests with empty plates
[00:04:40] From guilt and weeping effigies
[00:04:44] But we dance to the music
[00:04:46] And we dance
