《Mexicali Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Mexicali Blues (墨西卡利蓝调) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)

[00:00:19] Laid back in an old saloon

[00:00:20] With a peso in my hand

[00:00:23] Watching flies and children on the street

[00:00:27] And I catch a glimpse of black eyed girls

[00:00:29] Who giggle when I smile

[00:00:31] There's a little boy who

[00:00:32] Wants to shine my feet

[00:00:35] And it's three days ride from Bakersfield

[00:00:37] And I don't know why I came

[00:00:39] I guess I came to keep from paying dues

[00:00:43] So instead I've got a bottle

[00:00:45] And a girl who's just fourteen

[00:00:47] And a damn good case

[00:00:49] Of the Mexicali blues yeah

[00:00:53] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:00:56] When the devil wants to take it all away

[00:01:01] Cherish well your thoughts

[00:01:02] And keep a tight grip on your booze

[00:01:05] Cause thinking and drinking are all

[00:01:06] I have today

[00:01:26] She said her name was Billy Jean

[00:01:27] And she was fresh in town

[00:01:29] I didn't know a stage line ran from hell

[00:01:34] She had raven hair a ruffled dress

[00:01:36] A necklace made of gold

[00:01:38] All the French perfume you'd care to smell

[00:01:42] She took me up into her room

[00:01:44] And whispered in my ear

[00:01:46] Go on my friend do anything you choose

[00:01:50] Now I'm paying for those happy hours

[00:01:53] I spent there in her arms

[00:01:55] With a lifetime's worth of

[00:01:56] The Mexicali blues yeah

[00:02:00] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:02:03] When the devil wants to take it all away

[00:02:08] Cherish well your thoughts and keep

[00:02:09] A tight grip on your booze

[00:02:12] Cause thinking and drinking are

[00:02:13] All I have today

[00:02:33] And then a man rode into town

[00:02:35] Some thought he was the law

[00:02:37] Billy Jean was waiting when he came

[00:02:41] She told me he would take her if

[00:02:43] I didn't use my gun

[00:02:45] I'd have no one but myself to blame

[00:02:50] I went down to those dusty streets

[00:02:52] Blood was on my mind

[00:02:54] I guess that stranger hadn't heard the news

[00:02:58] Cause I shot first and killed him

[00:03:00] Lord he didn't even draw

[00:03:02] And he made me trade the gallows

[00:03:04] For the Mexicali blues yeah

[00:03:07] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:03:11] When he lets a woman hold him in her hands

[00:03:15] He just might find himself out there

[00:03:17] On horseback in the dark

[00:03:19] Just riding and running

[00:03:21] Across those desert sands
