《Cairo， Illinois》歌词

[00:00:17] If it's not where you're from

[00:00:21] But what you had where you happened to come from

[00:00:26] More or less I'd say that I had none

[00:00:30] Eatin' and drinkin' would be all that I do

[00:00:37] And if it's not what you do

[00:00:41] But what you got

[00:00:43] Then I got less

[00:00:45] And out of loving or playing

[00:00:47] I like loving the best

[00:00:50] Now baby

[00:00:50] Take me with you when you go

[00:00:56] Take me to the bridge where the rivers collide

[00:01:09] Down in cairo

[00:01:13] Illinois on a Saturday night

[00:01:19] I might jump in

[00:01:33] Everyone wants to hear a song

[00:01:36] That helps the day seem half as long

[00:01:38] But I'm trying

[00:01:43] I want you to see that I'm trying

[00:01:50] Babe

[00:01:53] If you've lost your ticket to paradise

[00:01:58] Or you spent your money for the bus

[00:02:01] It's cold coffee in the morning

[00:02:04] Slow trumpet at dusk

[00:02:08] Now baby

[00:02:12] Catch that old midnight train

[00:02:22] I want you to hear that I'm trying

[00:02:38] Babe

[00:03:22] Down by the levee

[00:03:26] Where you swear god's got you shamed

[00:03:30] Just cast your doubts and the mistakes that you've made

[00:03:34] Into that old wishing well

[00:03:40] Well well well well

[00:03:41] Don't the river look lonesome at twilight

[00:03:44] Well

[00:03:45] There ain't no looking back

[00:03:49] It's just a broken fiddle and an old tote sack

[00:03:53] In the morning you'll be going south

[00:03:59] I want you to feel like I'm trying

[00:04:09] Babe

[00:04:12] Oh yes

[00:04:16] I want you to know that I'm trying
