《Gentle On My Mind》歌词

[00:00:00] Gentle On My Mind - King of the Road

[00:00:09] It's knowing that your door is always open

[00:00:12] And your path is free to walk

[00:00:18] That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up

[00:00:21] And stashed behind your couch

[00:00:26] And it's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten

[00:00:29] Words and bonds

[00:00:31] And the ink stains that have dried up on some line

[00:00:38] That keeps you in the back roads

[00:00:40] By the rivers of my memory

[00:00:42] That keeps you ever gentle on my mind

[00:00:49] It's not clinging to the rocks

[00:00:50] And ivy planted on their columns now that binds me

[00:00:58] Or something that somebody said

[00:01:00] Because they thought we fit together walking

[00:01:06] It's just knowing that the world

[00:01:08] Will not be cursing or forgiving when I walk along

[00:01:12] Some railroad tracking fine

[00:01:17] That you're waving from the back roads

[00:01:20] By the river of my memory

[00:01:22] And for hours you're just gentle on my mind

[00:01:29] Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines

[00:01:31] And the junkyards and the highways come between us

[00:01:37] And some other woman's cryin' to her mother

[00:01:41] 'Cause she turned and I was gone

[00:01:47] I still might run in silence

[00:01:48] Tears of joy might stain my face

[00:01:51] And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind

[00:01:58] But not to where

[00:01:59] I cannot see you walkin' on the back roads

[00:02:02] By the rivers flowin' gentle on my mind

[00:02:09] I dip my cup of soup back

[00:02:11] From a gurglin' cracklin' cauldron

[00:02:13] In some train yard

[00:02:18] My beard a rustlin' coal pile

[00:02:20] And a dirty hat pulled low across my face

[00:02:27] Through cupped hands 'round a tin can

[00:02:29] I pretend to hold you to my breast and find

[00:02:35] That you're waitin' from the back roads

[00:02:38] By the rivers of my memory ever smilin'

[00:02:41] Ever gentle on my mind
