《Every Picture Tells a Story》歌词

[00:00:00] Spent some time feelin' inferior

[00:00:06] Standin' in front of my mirror

[00:00:10] Combed my hair in a thousand ways

[00:00:15] But I came out lookin' just the same

[00:00:19] Daddy said "Son you better see the world

[00:00:24] I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to leave

[00:00:28] But remember one thing don't lose your head

[00:00:33] To a woman that'll spend your bread"

[00:00:37] So I got out

[00:00:44] Paris was a place you could hide away

[00:00:50] If you thought you didn't fit in

[00:00:54] French police wouldn't give me no peace

[00:00:59] Just claimed I was a nasty person

[00:01:03] Down along the Left Bank minding my own

[00:01:08] Was knocked down by a human stampede

[00:01:12] Got arrested for inciting a peaceful riot

[00:01:18] When all I wanted was a cup of tea

[00:01:21] I was accused

[00:01:35] Down in Rome I wasn't getting enought

[00:01:42] Of the things that keep a young man alive

[00:01:45] My body stunk but I kept my funk at a time

[00:01:51] When I was right out of luckGetting desperate indeed I was

[00:02:00] Looking like a tourist attraction

[00:02:03] Oh my dear I better get out of here

[00:02:08] Before the Vatican don't give no sanction I wasn't running oh no

[00:02:26] And on the Peking ferry I was feeling merry

[00:02:32] Sailing on my way back here

[00:02:35] I fell in love with a slit eyed lady

[00:02:41] By the light of an eastern moon

[00:02:45] Shanghai Lil never used the pill

[00:02:50] She claimed that it just ain't natural

[00:02:54] She took me up on deck and bit my neck

[00:03:00] People I was glad I found her oh yes so glad

[00:03:16] Wait a minute

[00:03:24] Well I firmly believe that I didn't need anyone but me

[00:03:32] I sincerely thought I was so complete

[00:03:38] Look how wrong you can be

[00:03:41] The women I've known I wouldn't let tie my shoe

[00:03:47] They wouldn't give you the time of day

[00:03:50] But the slit eyed lady knocked me off my feet

[00:03:56] God I was glad I found her

[00:04:00] And if there were words I could tell to you

[00:04:06] To help you on the way down the road

[00:04:09] Couldn't quote you no Dickens Shelley or Keats

[00:04:15] 'Cause it's all been said before

[00:04:18] Make the best out of the bad just laugh it off

[00:04:24] Didn't have to come here anyway

[00:04:27] So remember every picture tells a story don't it

[00:04:32] Every picture tells a story don't it

[00:04:35] Every picture tells a story don't it

[00:04:38] Every picture tells a story don't it
