《Mexicali Blues(Live at Lyceum Theatre， May 1972)》歌词

[00:00:00] Mexicali Blues [Live at Lyceum Theatre, May 1972

[00:00:17] Laid back in an old saloon with a peso in my hand

[00:00:21] Just watching flies and children on the street

[00:00:25] I catch a glimpse of black eyed girls

[00:00:27] Who giggle when I smile

[00:00:29] There's a little boy who wants to shine my feet

[00:00:33] And It's three days ride from Bakersfield

[00:00:35] And I don't know why I came

[00:00:37] I guess I came to keep from paying dues

[00:00:41] So instead I've got a bottle

[00:00:43] And a girl who's just fourteen

[00:00:45] And a damned good case of the Mexicali Blues

[00:00:49] Yeh

[00:00:50] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:00:54] When the Devil wants to take it all away

[00:00:58] Cherish well your thoughts

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

[00:01:02] Cause thinking and drinking are all I have today

[00:01:23] She said her name was Billy Jean

[00:01:24] And she was fresh in town

[00:01:27] I didn't know a stage line ran from Hell

[00:01:30] She had raven hair a ruffled dress

[00:01:33] A necklace made of gold

[00:01:35] And all the french perfume you'd care to smell

[00:01:39] She took me up into her room

[00:01:41] And whispered in my ear

[00:01:43] Go on my friend do anything you choose

[00:01:47] Now I'm paying for those happy hours

[00:01:49] I spent there in her arms

[00:01:51] With a life-time's worth of Mexicali Blues

[00:01:54] Yeh

[00:01:56] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

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

[00:02:04] Cherish well your thoughts

[00:02:05] And keep a tight grip on your booze

[00:02:08] Cause thinking and drinking are all I have today

[00:02:29] Then a man rode into town some thought he was the law

[00:02:33] But Billy Jean was waiting when he came

[00:02:37] She told me he would take her

[00:02:38] If I didn't use my gun

[00:02:41] And I'd have no one but myself to blame

[00:02:45] I went down to those dusty streets blood was on my mind

[00:02:49] I guess that stranger hadn't heard the news

[00:02:53] Cause I shot first and killed him

[00:02:55] Lord he didn't even draw

[00:02:57] And he made me trade the gallows for the Mexicali Blues

[00:03:01] Yeh

[00:03:02] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:03:06] When he lets a woman hold him in her hand

[00:03:10] You just might find yourself out there

[00:03:11] On horseback in the dark

[00:03:14] Just riding and running across those desert sands
