《Drifter’s Escape》歌词

[00:00:00] Drifter's Escape - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)

[00:00:10] Help me in my weakness

[00:00:14] I heard the drifter say

[00:00:20] As they carried him from the courtroom

[00:00:25] And were taking him away

[00:00:31] My trip hasn't been a pleasant one

[00:00:35] My time it isn't long

[00:00:41] And I still do not know

[00:00:45] What it was that I've done wrong

[00:00:56] Well the judge he cast his robe aside

[00:01:01] A tear came to his eye

[00:01:06] You fail to understand he said

[00:01:11] Why must you even try

[00:01:17] Outside the crowd was stirring

[00:01:21] You could hear it from the door

[00:01:27] Inside the judge was stepping down

[00:01:32] While the jury cried for more

[00:01:46] Oh stop that cursed jury

[00:01:50] Cried the attendant and the nurse

[00:01:57] The trial was bad enough

[00:02:01] But this is ten times worse

[00:02:07] Just then a bolt of lightning

[00:02:11] Struck the courthouse out of shape

[00:02:17] And while everybody knelt to pray

[00:02:22] The drifter did escape
