《The Magdalene Laundries》歌词

[00:00:01] The Magdalene Laundries - The Chieftains
[00:00:43] I was an unmarried girl
[00:00:47] I'd just turned twenty-seven
[00:00:51] When they sent me to the sisters
[00:00:55] For the way men looked at me
[00:01:01] Branded as a Jezebel
[00:01:03] I knew I was not bound for Heaven
[00:01:08] I'd be cast in shame
[00:01:11] Into the Magdalene laundries
[00:01:24] Most girls come here pregnant
[00:01:29] Some by their own fathers
[00:01:34] Bridget got that belly
[00:01:37] By her parish priest
[00:01:42] We're trying to get things white as snow
[00:01:45] All of us woe-begotten-daughters
[00:01:50] In the steaming stains
[00:01:52] Of the Magdalene laundries
[00:02:05] Prostitutes and destitutes
[00:02:09] And temptresses like me--
[00:02:14] Fallen women--
[00:02:17] Sentenced into dreamless drudgery
[00:02:23] Why do they call this heartless place
[00:02:27] Our Lady of Charity
[00:02:32] Oh charity
[00:02:42] These bloodless brides of Jesus
[00:02:44] If they had just once glimpsed their groom
[00:02:49] Then they'd know and they'd drop the stones
[00:02:53] Concealed behind their rosaries
[00:03:00] They wilt the grass they walk upon
[00:03:03] They leech the light out of a room
[00:03:07] They'd like to drive us down the drain
[00:03:10] At the Magdalene laundries
[00:03:23] Peg O'Connell died today
[00:03:27] She was a cheeky girl
[00:03:29] A flirt
[00:03:30] They just stuffed her in a hole
[00:03:33] Surely to God you'd think at least some bells should ring
[00:03:42] One day I'm going to die here too
[00:03:45] And they'll plant me in the dirt
[00:03:50] Like some lame bulb
[00:03:53] That never blooms come any spring
[00:03:59] Not any spring
[00:04:03] No not any spring
[00:04:14] Not any spring
