《The Last Trip to Tulsa(Live at the Riverboat 1969)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Last Trip To Tulsa - Neil Young (尼尔·杨)

[00:00:24] Well I used to drive a cab you know

[00:00:29] I heard a siren scream

[00:00:34] Pulled over to the corner

[00:00:36] And I fell into a dream

[00:00:46] There were two men eating pennies

[00:00:50] And three young girls who cried

[00:00:54] The west coast is falling

[00:00:58] I see rocks in the sky

[00:01:05] The preacher took his bible

[00:01:09] And laid it on the stool

[00:01:13] He said: with the congregation running

[00:01:16] Why should I play the fool

[00:01:37] Well I used to be a woman you know

[00:01:42] I took you for a ride

[00:01:45] I let you fly my airplane

[00:01:49] It looked good for your pride

[00:01:54] Cause youre the kind of man you know

[00:01:59] Who likes what he says

[00:02:03] I wonder whats its like

[00:02:04] To be so far over my head

[00:02:13] Well the lady made the wedding

[00:02:16] And she brought along the ring

[00:02:20] She got down on her knees

[00:02:24] And said: lets get on with this thing

[00:02:45] Well I used to be a folk singer

[00:02:50] Keeping managers alive

[00:02:54] When you saw me on a corner

[00:02:57] And told me I was jive

[00:03:05] So I unlocked your mind you know

[00:03:09] To see what I could see

[00:03:12] If you guarantee the postage

[00:03:16] Ill mail you back the key

[00:03:25] Well I woke up in the morning

[00:03:28] With an arrow through my nose

[00:03:31] There was an indian in the corner

[00:03:35] Tryin on my clothes

[00:04:17] Well I used to be asleep you know

[00:04:22] With blankets on my bed

[00:04:28] I stayed there for a while

[00:04:31] Till they discovered I was dead

[00:04:38] The coroner was friendly

[00:04:42] And I liked him quite a lot

[00:04:47] If I hadnt ve been a woman

[00:04:51] I guess I'd never have been caught

[00:04:59] They gave me back my house and car

[00:05:03] And nothing more was said

[00:05:44] Well I was driving down the freeway

[00:05:47] When my car ran out of gas

[00:05:51] Pulled over to the station

[00:05:53] But I was afraid to ask

[00:06:00] The servicemen were yellow

[00:06:05] And the gasoline was green

[00:06:08] Although I knew I couldnt

[00:06:10] I thought that I was gonna scream

[00:06:18] That was on my last trip to tulsa

[00:06:21] Just before the snow

[00:06:25] If you ever need a ride there

[00:06:29] Be sure to let me know

[00:07:31] I was chopping down a palm tree

[00:07:37] When a friend dropped by to ask

[00:07:41] If I would feel less lonely

[00:07:44] If he helped me swing the axe

[00:07:56] I said: no its not a case of being lonely

[00:08:01] We have here

[00:08:06] I've been working on this palm tree

[00:08:10] For eighty seven years

[00:08:39] I said: no its not a case of being lonely

[00:08:44] We have here

[00:08:48] Ive been working on this palm tree

[00:08:54] For eighty seven years

[00:09:02] He said: go get lost

[00:09:05] And walked towards his cadillac

[00:09:12] I chopped down the palm tree

[00:09:15] And it landed on his back
