《Black Day In July》歌词

[00:00:00] Black Day In July (黑暗的七月) - Gordon Lightfoot
[00:00:01] Written by:Gordon Lightfoot
[00:00:04] Black day in July
[00:00:07] Motor City madness has touched the countryside
[00:00:12] And through the smoke and cinders
[00:00:14] You can hear it far and wide
[00:00:17] The doors are quickly bolted
[00:00:19] And the children locked inside
[00:00:23] Black day in July
[00:00:26] Black day in July
[00:00:29] And the soul of Motor City is bared across the land
[00:00:34] As the book of law and order is taken in the hands
[00:00:39] Of the sons of the fathers who were carried to this land
[00:00:45] Black day in July
[00:00:48] Black day in July
[00:00:51] In the streets of Motor City is a deadly silent sound
[00:00:56] And the body of a dead youth lies stretched upon the ground
[00:01:01] Upon the filthy pavement
[00:01:03] No reason can be found
[00:01:07] Black day in July
[00:01:10] Black day in July
[00:01:13] Motor City madness has touched the countryside
[00:01:18] And the people rise in anger
[00:01:20] And the streets begin to fill
[00:01:22] And there's gunfire from the rooftops
[00:01:25] And the blood begins to spill
[00:01:28] Black day in July
[00:01:33] In the mansion of the governor
[00:01:36] There's nothing that is known for sure
[00:01:38] The telephone is ringing
[00:01:39] And the pendulum is swinging
[00:01:42] And they wonder how it happened
[00:01:44] And they really know the reason
[00:01:46] And it wasn't just the temperature
[00:01:49] And it wasn't just the season
[00:01:52] Black day in July
[00:01:57] Black day in July
[00:02:00] Motor City's burning and the flames are running wild
[00:02:05] They reflect upon the waters of the river and the lake
[00:02:09] And everyone is listening
[00:02:12] And everyone's awake
[00:02:15] Black day in July
[00:02:18] Black day in July
[00:02:21] The printing press is turning
[00:02:23] And the news is quickly flashed
[00:02:27] And you read your morning paper
[00:02:29] And you sip your cup of tea
[00:02:31] And you wonder just in passing
[00:02:33] Is it him or is it me
[00:02:37] Black day in July
[00:02:43] In the office of the President
[00:02:45] The deed is done the troops are sent
[00:02:47] There's really not much choice you see
[00:02:49] It looks to us like anarchy
[00:02:52] And then the tanks go rolling in
[00:02:54] To patch things up as best they can
[00:02:56] There is no time to hesitate
[00:02:58] The speech is made the dues can wait
[00:03:01] Black day in July
[00:03:06] Black day in July
[00:03:09] The streets of Motor City now are quiet and serene
[00:03:14] But the shapes of gutted buildings
[00:03:16] Strike terror to the heart
[00:03:18] And you say how did it happen
[00:03:20] And you say how did it start
[00:03:23] Why can't we all be brothers
[00:03:25] Why can't we live in peace
[00:03:27] But the hands of the havenots
[00:03:29] Keep falling out of reach
[00:03:33] Black day in July
[00:03:38] Black day in July
[00:03:41] Motor City madness has touched the countryside
[00:03:46] And through the smoke and cinders
[00:03:48] You can hear it far and wide
[00:03:51] The doors are quickly bolted
[00:03:53] And the children locked inside
[00:03:56] Black day in July
[00:03:59] Black day in July
[00:04:03] Black day in July
