《Beale Street Blues》歌词

[00:00:01] Beale Street Blues - Eartha Kitt

[00:00:09] If Beale Street could talk

[00:00:12] If Beale Street could talk

[00:00:14] Married men would have to

[00:00:16] Take their beds and walk

[00:00:18] Except one or two

[00:00:20] Who never drink booze

[00:00:22] And the blind man on the corner

[00:00:24] Who sings the Beale Street Blues

[00:00:27] You'll see pretty browns in beautiful gowns

[00:00:31] You'll see tailor-mades

[00:00:34] And hand-me-downs

[00:00:35] You'll meet honest men

[00:00:38] And pick-pockets skilled

[00:00:40] You'll find that business never closes

[00:00:43] Till somebody gets killed

[00:00:44] I'd rather be here than anyplace I know

[00:00:53] I'd rather be here than anyplace I know

[00:01:02] It's gonna take the Sergeant

[00:01:05] For to make me go

[00:01:11] I'm going to the river

[00:01:14] Maybe by and by

[00:01:20] I'm going to the river

[00:01:23] And there's a reason why

[00:01:29] Because the river's wet

[00:01:32] And Beale Street's done gone dry

[00:01:56] If Beale Street could talk

[00:01:59] If Beale Street could talk

[00:02:02] Married men would have

[00:02:03] To take their beds and walk

[00:02:06] Except one or two

[00:02:08] Who never drink booze

[00:02:10] And the blind man on the corner

[00:02:12] Who sings the Beale Street Blues

[00:02:15] I'd rather be here be here

[00:02:18] Than anyplace I know than anyplace I know

[00:02:24] I'd rather be here be here

[00:02:27] Than anyplace I know than anyplace I know

[00:02:32] It's gonna take the Sergeant

[00:02:35] For to make me go

[00:02:41] I'm goin' to the river river

[00:02:45] Maybe by and by maybe by and by

[00:02:49] Yes I'm goin' to the river the river and

[00:02:54] There's a reason why

[00:02:56] There's a reason why

[00:02:59] Because the river's wet

[00:03:02] Beale Street's done gone dry
