《African Friend》歌词

[00:00:22] Disembarking at duvalier airport

[00:00:28] Seeking transportation to town

[00:00:33] As the purple ink dried on his passport

[00:00:38] He could still feel the eyes look around

[00:00:48] Spoke to the cabbie and smiled

[00:00:58] As he motioned the dark man inside

[00:01:04] Business in aruba concluded

[00:01:08] He now had a little money to spend

[00:01:13] That's how I came to meet my african friend

[00:01:23] We were rolling the bones several hours

[00:01:28] Conversing as most gamblers do

[00:01:33] We were calling on all of our powers

[00:01:39] Hopin' to see the night through

[00:01:43] But not approving at all of our winnings

[00:01:49] Pit boss he tugged at his sleeve

[00:01:54] Through the whole thing my new friend was grinning

[00:01:59] When he motioned it's time we should leave

[00:02:04] With our night at the tables behind us

[00:02:09] We were ready just to do it again

[00:02:14] That's when I came to know my african friend

[00:02:43] But I woke up on the steps of a whorehouse

[00:02:49] Soldier told me I'd better leave

[00:02:54] As I stumbled to find me a taxi

[00:02:59] I saw a note pinned to my sleeve

[00:03:04] It was a pleasure and a hell of an evenin'

[00:03:10] Truly was our night to win

[00:03:14] But the authorities insist on my leaving

[00:03:19] Take care my american friend

[00:03:24] With my weekend at haiti concluded

[00:03:29] I now had a little money to spend

[00:03:34] That's when I came to meet my african friend

[00:03:38] That's how I came to know another good friend
